Hi,
I use tor everyday in my college as we have a http proxy which blocks specific sites. It has been a huge help for me and I would like to improve it by contributing to it by implementing new ways and resolving bugs.
I would like to do this year's GSoC with the tor organisation and I felt it would be better for me if i get acquainted with the source code well beforehand. I need suggestions on how to start going about understanding the source code. I would love if there are bugs and mini-projects that a beginner could resolve and improve my understanding of the source code.
Thanks Anirudh V

Hi Anirudh. This is really good timing! I just sent an email to other tor devs a few hours ago to start sorting ourselves out for GSoC. The first step would be to think of a project or look at the following for ideas...

Keep in mind that this page is in flux right now so projects will come and go. When you find something that catches your fancy contact the prospective mentor to get more information.
Cheers! -Damian
