Hello George and all,
When I was learning to implement Tor I had difficulty wading through the web pages for information. Some pages were obsolete, some poorly maintained (think Tor flow or good/bad hosting companies). The Tor manual is just a huge list of Tor terminology with no aids to help find things. The Tor project site has no site map. I still occasionally have the same problems when I try to find something. I found this very discouraging as I tried to grow my first Tor node without a live person to help me. I can imagine how daunting this would be to someone also trying to learn linux.
Hey, thanks so much for asking. I appreciate your interest.
