 I believe the widespread community concerns about the trustworthiness of
 the Tor Project are rooted in Tor's secret internal politics.

 Tickets #1971 and #19690 both show that these internal politics are
 spilling over into the technical realm, too.  This needs to stop.

 I suggest a new strategy: full transparency for all internal operations.
 Everything about the Tor project should be immediately and publicly
 visible.  Complete archives of lists like dir-auth should also be made
 available
