Comment:

 These are the questions I've added so far. There are still plenty more to
 go, and I plan to submit one or more additional patches for the other
 questions, but I wanted to dump what I had so far. Please someone make
 sure these answers are accurate (for example the IPv6 question!). I've
 modified them some, for example, by eliminating references to Polipo.

 New questions added:
 How can I share files anonymously through Tor?
 Do I have to open all these outbound ports on my firewall?
 How can I tell if Tor is working, and that my connections really are
 anonymized?
 How do I use my browser for ftp with Tor?
 Why does Google show up in foreign languages?
 What log level should I use?
 Is there a list of default exit ports?
 How do I check if my application that uses SOCKS is leaking DNS requests?
 I want to run my Tor client on a different computer than my applications.
 Can I install Tor on a central server, and have my clients connect to it?
 How often does Tor change its paths?
 Tor uses hundreds of bytes for every IRC line. I can't afford that!
 Why does netstat show these outbound connections?
 You should let people choose their path length.
 You should split each connection over many paths.
 Your default exit policy should block unallocated net blocks too.
 Exit policies should be able to block websites, not just IP addresses.
 You should change Tor to prevent users from posting certain content.
 Tor should support IPv6.
