Notes for May 5 2016 meeting:

Mike: 1) Worked on the OTF proposal with Isa, the TBB team, and the core-tor team.

Roger: 1) The tor-project rule 41 mail: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-project/2016-May/000309.html 2) SponsorW! We tentatively have a new NSF project starting in August, to build defenses for website fingerprinting 3) The subscription / membership discussion. Conclusion is that Alison will send her current draft of the membership process doc, and we'll look for landmines and generally try to move it forward to the point that more people can read it and decide if it's addressing the right things.

Kate: (instead of listing everything I did, am just listing points where I ask for Vegas input): 1) Wrote and sent out press release for DuckDuckGo and pitched to a couple Philly reporters; got a Technically Philly hit and a lot of twitter retweets-- dominated all other tweets for the whole Philadelphia Tech Week now in session. 2) Rule 41: SCOTUS rule would allow FBI hacking of computers using Tor, no matter where they are We are working with our alles. 3) Green Alerts--taking advantage of fast-moving good opportunities for Tor 4) Marketing Tor to drive up Tor uptake: Goals to increase the number of users? Social calls to action on browser home page? App store optimization (there's an Apple app store for computer apps)? User drive similar to EFF relay drive? 5) Scheduled and held two CloudFlare meetings (Friday afternoon/Monday afternoon); set out plan to mobilize allies. Alison is soliciting user stories. We will meet again early next week. Met with Marie on CloudFlare strategy.

Nick: 1) More hacking. 2) Helped with OTF stuff 3) Email transitions wrt Tom and Katherine (sent email to vegas-leads) 4) Going to Montreal this coming week 5) Somebody needs to train Seattle on SVN, etc. 6) We no longer have a huge box of quasi-antique HDs full of who-knows-what. Instead the HD shredding people have two or three tubs full of mashed-up HD parts. https://people.torproject.org/~nickm/volatile/drives/

Shari: 1) Apologies to Vegas team for jumping the gun on tor-internal. Anything I/we need to do for followup? 2) Seattle office is staffed up and running. Make sure teams know we have administrative and grant-writing help in house if they need it. 3) What should we do about Tor Dev and IFF?

Georg: 1) We worked on our transition to Tor Browser 6.0 which will keep us busy the next couple of weeks, too 2) I reviewed the OTF proposal

Alison 1) submitted OTF concept note for Tor servers community capacity building 2) Cloudflare community stuff: team is working on allies outreach, getting user stories, and creative campaign eg https://twitter.com/shiromarieke/status/727898847343738881 3) We need docs with our messaging that can be easily shared with allies, community members. Will ping Katie about getting these together. 4) Still slowly working on social contract, support docs, and membership doc. The last one is the new priority given all Tor internal stuff. Worked on it a bit with Lunar yesterday, hope to have something for Tor internal to review after the weekend. Integrating comments and ideas from the email thread. 5) Looking forward to seeing Shari and the Seattle office next week!

Isabela: 1) DRL stuff: * Submitted quarterly report * Will have a follow up call on our SOIs on May 11th 2) Submitting the OTF proposal tomorrow - trying to incorporate feedback and get this done 3) Denna is cool with updating deliverables for TBB on contract will get a draft of a formal proposal I need to write for her, for Mike and Georg to review. 4) Richard Brooks want to write a SOI to DRL for a project with he GENI network where we can deploy VMs on it for PT testing, or to run bridges etc - is it useful for us? Do we want to do it?

Karsten: 1) collector improvement project is going really well and not only improving collector but also other metrics code bases at the same time. 2) shutting down globe proceeds as planned. no big obstacles there. 3) tricked isabela into co-writing answers to funding-related questions in the metrics team FAQ at https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/MetricsTeam/Document...
