Hello Tor, Last month, we started preparing for a small fundraising event coming up next week in NYC: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/building-private-censorship-resistant-tech-a-c… We also continued making preparations for our DEF CON booth in August. I've also been helping coordinate a couple of other talks. We've been advocating for Ola's release. We were featured in Mozilla's Internet Health Report. We worked with the fundraising team on donor communications.

April 2019 report for the UX team
by Antonela Debiasi 11 May '19

11 May '19

Hey Tor, April found us spreading glitter at the Internet Freedom Festival. We shared a lot of sessions with the Community Team, we spent valuable time with our founders and also we met with old and new friends. We ran some talks, table time and meetups, you see them here https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/meetings/2019Valencia We provided our new outreach material in 3 different languages. Soon, it will be available for download at the new community portal, which is a work-in-progress: https://lektor-staging.torproject.org/community After torproject.org release, we worked on some short iterations of the download page, and we fixed some hot bugs. Also, we released it in two more languages: Icelandic and Georgian. The community team traveled to Colombia during April and Narirral (nah), a researcher from Brazil, joined ggus to run usability studies over Tor Browser desktop in Spanish with our community members. We released OONI Explorer Beta, and we are planning what we should prioritize for the stable version, in June. You can see our open tickets here https://github.com/ooni/explorer/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AUX We kicked off our S27 work to make Onion services more accessible and usable. The network team is working on a feature that allows onion services admins to set up an authentication key for accessing the service. The end-user facing part for this feature is the client authorization. We are creating this user interface following Mozilla Photon design system. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/30237 Thanks, A -- Antonela Debiasi UX Team Lead @antonela E2330A6D1EB5A0C8 https://torproject.org

April 2019 report for the Tor Browser team
by Georg Koppen 11 May '19

11 May '19

Hi everyone! Here comes the April report for the Tor Browser team (a bit late this time, but hey!). In that month we got Tor Browser 8.5a11[1] out which above all contains improvements for Tor Browser for Android stabilizing the alpha release and preparing for the first mobile stable one. Unfortunately we did not manage to get Tor Browser 8.5 out in April, thus this will happen in May. However, we made progress on a number of other fronts: We got up to speed on our Sponsor 27 tasks and started investigating different options for reporting onion service errors back from tor to the browser[2][3] and we started to work on Snowflake integration into the mobile Tor Browser[4]. Both sponsor work will keep parts of the team busy in May as well. Moreover, we started to plan our upcoming Firefox 68 ESR transition work. The full list of tickets closed by the Tor Browser team in April is accessible using the `TorBrowserTeam201904` keyword in our bug tracker.[5] In May we'll finally release Tor Browser 8.5. That will not only be the first stable release for Android users but will have restored full accessibility support for Windows users, too[6]. Moreover, we hope as well to finish our Snowflake integration on Android to have additional capacity to work on the first big tasks for the Firefox 68 ESR transition: toolchain updates for all supported platforms[7] and rebasing our patches and upstreaming them if possible[8]. All tickets on our radar for this month can be seen with the `TorBrowserTeam201905` keyword in our bug tracker.[9] Georg [1] https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-85a11 [2] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/14389 [3] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/30382 [4] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28672 [5] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=closed&keywords=~TorB… [6] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27503 [7] See: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/30320 and child tickets [8] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/30429 [9] https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=!closed&keywords=~Tor…

The IRC log can be found at http://meetbot.debian.net/tor-meeting2/2019/tor-meeting2.2019-05-06-17.31.l… The contents of the meeting pad are pasted below for you convenience: Discussion: - Should we whitelist NoScript for extension signing like we do for the other bundled extensions? We should think about how to avoid similar problems to armagadd-on 2.0 (#30388) in the future, specifically not having a bundled extension stop working (mcs) - esr68 transition work (GeKo: we plan to start soon with picking up toolchain work and rebasing browser patches (+ getting Torbutton integrated in the browser) - 8.5 release work (GeKo: due to armagadd-on 2.0 we'll postpone the 8.5 release and won't ship it with the 60.7.0esr security release; eta is a week later) mcs and brade: Last week: - #30000 (Integrating client-side authorization to onion services v3). - experimented with Arthur's old patch from 14389#comment:15. - discussed requirements with Network Team members. - Helped a tiny bit for #30388 (NoScript and all user-installed add-ons got deactivated!). This week: - Revisit #29627 (Moat: add support for obfsproxy's meek_lite). - #30000 (Integrating client-side authorization to onion services v3). - Think more about control port event vs. SOCKS or HTTP CONNECT error code and respond in #14389. - Review UX proposal in #30237 and respond. - Finalize travel plans for the Stockholm meeting. tjr - Backported letterboxing to esr60 pospeselr: Last week: - widl updates for #27503: - last week's refactor patch broke typequalifier/type associations (ie does const go with the pointer or the pointee) but got passed that this weekend and am closing in on fix for wine:47035, knowing what I know now, the remaining two bugs (47050 and 47041) are easy in comparison - simply dropping in midl built bits onto the mingw build doesn't work, as the generated headers have incompatible types (though this approach might make sense for dropping in fixed widl built bits rather than patching widl in mingw) - armagadd-on 2.0 fun (#30388) GeKo: Last wek: - many reviews (#30280, #29981, #30325, #30214, #30371, #29045, #30375, - 8.5 release prep - tested letterboxing patches (#30373) - then I got drowned in armagadd-on 2.0 work (#30388) This week: - remaining armagadd-on 2.0 work - preparing Tor Browser releases based on Firefox 60.7.0esr - reviews - finish monthly team admin work - feedback mails - back to toolchain work for esr68 boklm: Last week: - disabled or fixed some of the failing tests - made some patches for #30325 (Remove bison from default packages where it is not needed) and #29981 (Add yasm to the list of dependencies for android builds) - reviewed #29319 (Remove FTE support for Windows), #29307 (Use Stretch for cross-compiling for Windows), #29731 (Remove faketime for Windows builds) - made travel plans for the Stockholm meeting - helped with build of the emergency release (#30388) This week: - publishing of new releases - finish disabling all failing testsuite tests - start looking at #28672 (Android reproducible build of Snowflake) pili: Last week: - S27 - more roadmapping - first report sent - S9 workplan - Google Season of Docs organization This week: - dev meeting session planning - antonela Last week: - #30237 This week: - Reading stuffs about #30029 - #30024 - sync with pospeselr to touch base about security settings per tab (note: not needed for now) - sync with sysrqb on TBA release acat Last week: - Worked on mostly on 30304 (Browser locale can be obtained via DTD strings) and a bit on 26607 (verify that subpixel accuracy of window scroll properties does not add fingerprinting risk) This week: - Follow up 30304 on Bugzilla, try to fix breakage on central and try to get it merged. - 26607 sisbell: Last week: - #30166 - custom bridges - verified working with latest code in Browser - #30404 - Remove Orbot Project from browser build (in review) - #30162 - Tor Bootstrap Process stuck.
