Gordon,
Glad you think it might be useful - I don't know why I didn't post it here when I first wrote it back in January.
I'm happy to release it under the CC-BY-SA license for anyone to use and have modified the document accordingly. I agree that it would be fantastic to make setting up a middle relay something anyone could do without much technical knowledge. Have you considered a customised build of Raspian or something similar with Tor already included, and some sort of simple setup script?
Let me know where you end up putting the documentation, I'd be curious to see what else you are working on :)
Chris

Hi, Chris!
Chris Whittleston:
Thanks for this Gordon M - just thought I'd add that if it's useful for anyone, I threw a Pi Tor (middle) relay setup guide together a while ago - you can see it here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bf_D_j1O-9ckTS9DY8ngIdiFwHta6Q5Uj_5dvOia...
This
is great documentation.
If I've omitted anything important - please let me know. I know it's long (and goes through some pretty simple stuff), but the idea was to make it accessible to people who weren't otherwise likely to give setting up a relay a try.
That's the entire ultimate goal of The Cipollini Project - allow people who aren't super technically sophisticated to *easily* set up low-power, plug-and-forget Tor relays to bulk up the total middle-relay capacity of the network in the event of traffic growth, spikes (Turkey being a small example), and botnets.
Would you be interested in donating or releasing your docs under some free license (GFDL, appropriate Creative Commons) so they could be wikified or otherwise made collaboratively editable and presented as part of, or as an adjunct to, Cipollini? For now that might mean the Github wiki, but eventually the project will have its own site so less-experienced users can do some "one stop shopping" for documentation.
Best,
- -Gordon M.
