Hello Tor, hello world! Below you'll find the highlights of Tor metrics team work done in July 2018. On behalf of the Tor metrics team, Karsten Published detailed specifications for reproducing the data behind Tor Metrics graphs [1]. [1] https://metrics.torproject.org/reproducible-metrics.html Published specifications [2] for querying and processing the per-graph CSV files added to Tor Metrics earlier this year. [2] https://metrics.torproject.org/stats.html Added two new graphs [3] to Tor Metrics showing circuit build times [4] and circuit round-trip latencies [5] both of which are based on existing Torperf/OnionPerf data. [3] https://bugs.torproject.org/25774 [4] https://metrics.torproject.org/onionperf-latencies.html [5] https://metrics.torproject.org/onionperf-buildtimes.html Extended Relay Search results tables to show a summary row [6] and made a couple of smaller fixes to improve the aggregated search feature [7, 8]. On relay details pages there are no longer false positive "not recommended" banners on relays that are running newer experimental versions [9] and more properties are linked to be able to perform easy follow-up searches for related relays [10]. [6] https://bugs.torproject.org/25050 [7] https://bugs.torproject.org/25238 [8] https://bugs.torproject.org/25864 [9] https://bugs.torproject.org/25159 [10] https://bugs.torproject.org/25533 Updated metrics-bot to now allow posting tweets up to 280 characters, which is good news for those autonomous systems with longer names [11]. Additionally, updated codebase to increase JavaDoc coverage and to comply with Tor Metrics Java styleguide [12]. [11] https://bugs.torproject.org/26762 [12] https://bugs.torproject.org/24692 Released Onionoo version 6.1-1.15.0 [13] which adds a new "os" parameter to filter relays and bridges by operating system, extends the "as" and "country" parameters by a special country code and AS number to return relays that were not found in the GeoIP database, and deprecates the "host_name" field in details documents in favor of the new "verified_host_names" and "unverified_host_names" fields for more accurate DNS results. [13] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2018-July/013324.html Released CollecTor version 1.7.0 [14] which recognizes the new bridge authority, Serge. [14] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2018-July/013320.html Fully integrated Relay Search into Tor Metrics [15]. [15] https://bugs.torproject.org/25392
