Comment (by teor):

 Here are some more fixes:

 Install files should document all the required dependencies, but the sbws
 install file does not say that sbws needs Tor. Please move the tor install
 from the deploy file to the install file. Similarly, the Linux,
 virtualenv, and web server requirements should move from deploy to
 install.

 While you're doing that, please update the web server requirements. Almost
 all web servers support HEAD and GET. But I think sbws needs a web server
 that supports range requests?

 Please also delete or move the "Run sbws" section from the install file.
 And please remove the ```[OBSOLETE DO NOT FOLLOW]``` section. If you ever
 need it, you can find it in git.

 The end of the install file should tell people to read the deploy file to
 run sbws.

 The deploy file should use the standard example.{com,net,org} domains:
 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Example.com
