In view of possibilities of issues with laptops and travel, I was wondering if folks had taken access issues into account in planning meetings. I, for one, likely will not try to take a laptop into the US. Thoughts? stefani

Notes from June 29 2017 Vegas team meeting
by Karsten Loesing 30 Jun '17

30 Jun '17

Notes for June 29 2017 meeting: Alison: 1) Community Team roadmap progress -- still identifying goals and dependencies for the rest of the year. Main priorities are the dependencies and thinking about better ways to have communication channels with devs. 2) Potential new support hire planning with the comms team and the community team 3) Trusteer and Tor Browser situation -- some Windows 10 users can't open TB with Trusteer (anti-fraud, required by banks) software enabled. Colin is digging into this, hoping to have a full update soon. This issue is making me think broadly about support to developer feedback. 4) Support wiki -- hope to have this out next week. Making final edits, writing blog post now. Roger: 1) I did some of my logistics/bureaucracy stuff this past week, but much remains: SponsorR paper to review, PETS paper to review, Defcon slides to write, three NSF reports to start 2) Membership guidelines discussion is proceeding. I think we're getting good feedback so far, and there is work to be done. 3) Brad, Isa, Shari, are we all set with that government certification thing? 4) If you need a Defcon ticket, I might be able to swing a few. Let me know. 5) I'll be seeing Isabela in person right after this meeting, and probably Alison a bit after that, if you need us to discuss anything. Steph: 1) First more donor-focused email newsletter going out in 1-2 weeks. Working with Giant Rabbit to get set up on CiviCRM; they have to create an unsubscribe capability for sending newsletters. I'm creating the template now. Will start monthly, possibly become more frequent. Will be fed by previously published content: blog posts, jobs, press, events, etc. 2) Will be moving press list to CiviCRM; Giant Rabbit is building out with chosen fields now Nick: 1) Putting out releases this week with fixes for TROVE-2017-006. Affects 0.3.0 and later. TBB releases will be warranted IMO. 2) Wanting to resolve license status of torspec: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/18788 What to do? Should I grab a copyright person? 3) We're starting a "must have regression tests for bugs" policy; let's see how it goes. Other teams might want to watch and see whether they want one too. 4) Wrt fiscal year closing soon: let's not be quiet if anybody's timesheets/reports are late. Instead let's reach out to them right away, so we don't leave Sue & Brad hanging. 5) Should I approve timesheets? How? 6) Working on getting point-of-contact for PT issues. 7) Discussing how we can interact better with external developers/teams who write big patches. Arturo: 1) OONI measurements API now uses as a backend the new data processing pipeline: https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-measurements/pull/22 2) Next week we will be making a new ooniprobe mobile release that adds support for sending push notifications to users informing them of things happening in their country/network, asking them to collect more data. Shari: 1) Did some budget work and readjusting expenses based on new fiscal year starting next week. 2) Working with communications team to get our voice right. (nickm offers to help) 3) Back to the drawing board with strategic planners. 4) Working with Erin on updating employment and other Tor policies. 5) Pulling together a team and talking with Giant Rabbit about our end-of-year fundraising plans. Karsten: 1) Released Tor Metrics Library 2, blogged about it, completed Sponsor X award that ends June 30, 2017. Mike: 1) At Mozilla all hands this week. They are excited to work with us. The overall mood seems much more favorable to us than in years past. Isabela: 1) Working on spreadsheet with time allocation for network team and sponsors. 2) Website redesign contract soon coming in for review, to be signed mid-August. Brad: 1) Preparing for year-end close process (fiscal year ends 6/30) 2) Transitioning to new payroll provider for US-based employees effective 7/1

Is anybody going to Defcon?
by Roger Dingledine 28 Jun '17

28 Jun '17

I'm giving a talk, and I think I can get some of us in for free if I work at it. Let me know if you're a Tor person and you're going and you'd otherwise be needing to pay for registration yourself. --Roger

GSoC 2017 - unMessage: Report #2
by Felipe Dau 28 Jun '17

28 Jun '17

Hi everyone! This is my report #2 for the unMessage GSoC project. # Updates Since the last report, I mostly worked on the file transfer task (#12) as well as on the logger task (#30). As I intended to implement the file transfer using asynchronous calls, I was able to use the previous work I had done for the asynchronous task (#21) as well as make a few improvements to it. # Deliverables These are the tasks we selected for the first evaluation period: - Improve setup script #35 [0] - Use attrs #34 [1] - Support file transfer #12 [2] - Add a logger #30 [3] These tasks have been finished and their code has been merged to the develop branch [4]. More technical details can be found in the tickets. # What's next The next steps for this second set of tasks are: - Continue making the methods listed in #21 [5] asynchronous - Start writing unit tests for #33 [6] The code for these new tasks can be found in my unMessage fork [7]. Sorry for the delay :/ Thanks, -Felipe [0]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/35 [1]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/34 [2]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/12 [3]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/30 [4]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage [5]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/21 [6]: https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/33 [7]: https://github.com/felipedau/unmessage

This week: * Full throttle prop224 work with splitting the service branch in smaller ones for review and upstream merge. * Continuing and hopefully finishing the client implementation. * July is really our target for a minimally working prop224 for both our sponsors and our Defcon talk (early August). Thus, expect lots of work on that on my part. nickm: Last week: * Thanks to ahf, helped diagnose big regression from prop140 (consensus diff) work: we weren't checking if-modified-since correctly any more! Ahf has a fix; testing again now. * Worked on compression issues that toralf found. * Reviewed lots of code. Merged a bunch.

Core Tor team sponsor4 May report
by isabela 23 Jun '17

23 Jun '17

Core Tor team May 2017 report In May we released Core Tor 0.3.0.6 stable, our first stable release on the 0.3.0 series. [1] We also spend sometime organizing a team face to face meeting for June (Network Team Hackfest). This is part of an effort to give teams more opportunities to work face to face beyond our bi-annual meetings. We will be sharing more updates from this gathering on our blog. As part of proposal 140 we merged a GSoC project (#13339) [2] that created consensus diffs, done two years ago, and which will be of greater utility now with proposals 140 and 274-278. For that we had to do some update in the code and add more tests, here is the full list of tasks to add this project to our code base: * #21643 Extract, test, revise, and clean the diff code [3] * #21644 Fuzz the diff and patch code [4] * #21647 directory caches cache multiple past diffs or consensuses [5] * #21648 Caches generate diffs as appropriate [6] * #21649 Caches serve diffs on request [7] * #21650 Clients request diffs and handle diffs in replies [8] * #21673 Handle signatures correctly [9] * #22143 Implement May 3 updates to diff format in prop140 [10] * #22148 conformance to proposal, unhandled corner cases [11] * #22149 Update dir-spec with prop140 protocols [12] We are finished writing and testing proposal 278, and its relevant portions are now merged into dir-spec.txt (#22275) [13]. Tickets related to this effort: * #21664 - Prop278: Make the current 'torgzip' module a submodule of a new 'compression' module [14] * #21662 - Prop278: Add support for LZMA2 and/or Zstandard [15] * #21663 - Prop278: Refactor the torgzip module to support additional compression schemes [16] * #22066 - Prop278: Add memory measurement code in LZMA and Zstandard compression backends [17] * #22085 - Prop278: Refactor and simplify compression tests [18] * #21665 - Prop278: Establish an upper-bound for LZMA2 memory usage [19] * #21667 - Prop278: Handle new headers in directory.c [20] * child-tickets: * #21668 - Prop278: Update cached_dir_t and related types to no longer assume single compresison method [21] * #22065 - Prop278: Parse the Accept-Encoding header and pass it to "get" handlers [22] In June, we will be testing the merged code further, evaluating its performance, and fixing any bugs we find.

GSoC 2017 Ahmia Status Report #2
by Pushkar Pathak 23 Jun '17

23 Jun '17

Hello everyone, This is my bi-week status report for Ahmia - Hidden Service Search. ## Add page Add page is working as planned. [1] ## Elastic upgrade to 5.4 I am working on to upgrade support from Elastic 2.4 to 5.4. The ahmia-index [2] is working fine with Elastic 5.4. The search results need to to be checked for Elastic support. Although I had planned to replace polipo with torsocks in the previous week, upgrading Elastic was top priority and therefore we shifted to it. Once the upgrade is done, data visualization of statistics need to be completed. Thanks, Pushkar Pathak [1]: https://github.com/ahmia/ahmia-site/pull/8 [2]: https://github.com/ahmia/ahmia-index
