Interest in Contributing to Tor

Hi, I am a junior student at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad with major in Computer Science and Security, and I am very interested in working for your organization this summer and further. I have a strong background in information security and algorithms. I strongly believe in the cause that you are fighting for - free/open Internet for all, and would like to support you by contributing to the code. I have been through the paper by Roger Dingledine and Nick Mathewson, "Design of a blocking-resistant anonymity system" and your work aroused my interest. I am trying to build up my knowledge in the field of information security with some hands-on experience, through projects. The paper by Dingledine, Mathewson had a lot of proposals for making Tor blocking-resistant, but in your list of proposed projects I only found a project for implementing a HTTPS server in the list of project ideas. What is the current status of implementation of ideas listed? I would like to contribute by into the field of algorithms and cryptography by implementing more ideas to make it even more blocking-resistant. Please let me know what are the projects and ideas having maximum priority , so that I can start working on them right away. Thanks & Regards, Kaushik Srinivasan, UG3, B.tech CSE, IIIT Hyderabad.

you should watch this Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmj2w9HPPaE It contains Jacob and Roger talking about all tor projects and the level of priority. Hope that helps you.
