 Hi arma!

 Replying to [comment:1 arma]:

 (the Firefox extension in Tor Browser), then it would be good to
 coordinate with mcs and brade to learn about their recent and upcoming UX
 changes for tor-launcher.

 Thank you for your suggestion! I have been trying to follow up the new
 design of the Tor launcher and anon-connection-wizard has had the latest
 design by Tor UX team so far.

 > My second thought is that we've been pushing people to come up with
 their own name for their thing, rather than having them name it tor-
 something, since the more tor-somethings there are in the world, the more
 people will want their thing to be named tor-something, and the cycle will
 continue. So I wonder if there is a cool unique name that you could use
 that makes the thing *yours*. (Imagine a world where several people each
 develop their own Tor launcher helper app, and each of them wants it to be
 named tor-something.) (I recognize that tor-launcher undermines this goal
 by being named tor-something. :(

 Thank you so for your detailed explanation. I agree with you that avoid
 naming everything tor-something is healthier for the Tor ecosystem. Also
 naming it tor-something may let people think it is something TPO is
 responsible for which can be misleading.

 > My third thought is that if we're going to name the thing tor-something,
 we should first figure out how much buy-in we have from the various
 projects that will use it. Those are... tails and whonix?

 Yes. anon-connection-wizard has been integrated into Whonix while it has
 not been integrated into Tails yet.
