Hi, here's my monthly status report for July 2022
Last month I got a bit too over excited about tor-browser-build!443, as it's still in the review cycle [1]. Now that [2] is merged, this entire MR has to be rebased and edited.
This month started with some more changes to tor-browser-build!443, and then more patchwork on the WebRTC issue. From the 6th to the 15th (except for the 9th) I was AFK due to external commitments. As soon I was back I started working again on the WebRTC issue, and then got very sick on the 18th. Work started again on the 26th, once again on the WebRTC issue.
Unfortunately, due to having reduced and disjoint working hours as a result of external factors, I don't feel like I accomplished everything I wanted to this month. As a result of this, next month I'll be focusing solely on the WebRTC issue and leaving tor-browser-build!443 until after that is complete.
In very early August I'm planning on having the compilation issues for WebRTC under MinGW resolved (nearly there, hopefully), and also in early August I'd like to be able to start debugging runtime errors.
All things considered, I still managed to become much more familiar with Gecko, which should be very helpful with S131 :)
Cheers,
Marco

Hi, everyone,
This is my status report for July.
My focus remains the same - support the Russian-speaking users in their
interactions with Tor Browser through email, our telegram account, and
our forum and IRC chat.
This month, there were two significant events that I dealt with - the
release of the new version of Tor Browser - 11.5 and internet censorship
events in Turkmenistan.
1. User support
Overall
In July, I successfully resolved 473 tickets.
On Telegram (@TorProjectSupportBot) - 239
On email (frontdesk@tpo) - 234
Unlike the previous month, I got almost the same amount of user requests
on telegram and email in July. I've got many requests on the email
frontdesk@tpo from Turkmenistan - the country facing enormous internet
censorship. And email communication is more popular as messengers are
banned there.
2. New version of TB
In July new version of Tor Browser 11.5 was released, so I took part in
getting users' feedback on the Connection Assist [1].
Thanks to the new version - the number of bridge requests from Russia
lowered in July.
3. User support templates
This month I updated the user support templates in Russian according to
the new features of the Tor Browser.
While doing it, I found a bug with the bridges display [2].
As the Tor Project website was, first, unblocked in Russia and then -
blocked again - it caused some extra work on updating the templates.
Due to the censorship events in Turkmenistan[3], I gathered all the
information that can help users connect to Tor and updated a template
for the users from this country.
