Notes for December 8 2016 meeting:
Isabela: 1) trying to help organize the blog posts for fundraising campaign 2) trying to answer as many Cass questions for DRL proposal as I can 3) coordinating with Sue Abt and Adam from OTF to close sponsorU 4) synced with Hiro and she will take the stuff Sebastian wants to pass on - she replied to his email on internal and will coordinate with him 5) Linda is doing a lot of work with the Metrics team new site project as well as with OONI usability improvements project - ux methodology is evolving every project she takes (she is also doing a lot of work on documenting things) - we want to ping OTF and DRL about this because I believe sponsors will be glad to see Tor's implementing usability into it's development processes. 6) working with folks on Orfox ISC project to make sure we meet new deadlines - Linda is preparing the user testing methodology we will use on Q1 2017 to test the security slider on Orfox
Alison: 0) The Tor Browser manual is now up on Transifex! Thanks Phoul!! The community team continues to work on stuff related to the support portal too. 1) Update on funding needs for Global South Tor trainers 2) I have a draft blog post on training people about Tor, which will include some of my slides, some of Isa's, and info about tor-teachers mailing list and wiki. I can hold onto this until whenever. 3) LFP update
Nick: 1) December seems likely to be a tidying-up month for pending work, etc. Not sure what else I should be working on. That's not a cry for more work though.
Kate: 1) Answering various press queries--we're being blocked in Belarus! 2) Press release for crowdfunding campaign 3) Various loose ends as well.
Mike: 1) I'm in a similar place as Nick - picking up loose ends. In general, I'm trying to decide which is the most useful thing I can be doing this month. Any guidance would be helpful. Here's the things I am aware of that I could do, but am not sure exactly how to rank them: * Sink more effort into the Tor Copperhead Prototype, or just let it coast for a while by merging other people's patches. Leaning towards the latter, but people are contacting me about stuff (including funding) * Work on tor-core traffic analysis things (ie NSF and Netflow patch) * Help with the DRL proposal. * Try to interface more with Mozilla * Work on gathering the "Tor at the Heart" projects into Tor Labs. * Work on a blog post arguing that the technology industry should do more to protect its users (may not be a good thing to mix in with the fundraising campaign?) * Work on another blog post for our fundraising campaign. * Help with the tor-core hiring process. * review of #18022 (and #15056, and other tickets?) * update tor browser design doc section about website traffic fingerprinting if needed
Georg: 1) We were working on SponsorU wrap up and made preliminary plans for the coming weeks and months working towards the ESR 52 transition 2) I helped with the DRL proposal
Arturo: 1) Pushed out a new release of ooniprobe that includes IM tests as well as testing of reachability of Tor bridges and Directory authorities enabled by default. 2) Published a blog post about blocking of Tor in Belarus: https://ooni.torproject.org/post/belarus-fries-onion/ 3) Improvements to our continuous integration and testing for ooniprobe (demo.probe.ooni.io is now automatically redeployed on merge to master and we have a daily tests to ensure debian and ubuntu packages are working) 4) Writing a report on the internet shutdown in Gambia 5) Design work for the OONI UX is continuing and it's going very well (see: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/UX/OoniUiDesign) 6) We have a blog post with an overview on OONI for the Tor at the heart of campaign: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xPA0ak8m5bKOKrNQdedC_zCIV2w25B3gGklnuiYm....
