 Replying to [comment:16 gk]:
 > Yes, those are good points. However, I'd like to understand what you
 think we should do for Tor Browser here. In particular, I was wondering
 whether to spend time on reviewing and testing your changes in a Tor
 Browser context *now*, with the aim to have all of that merged to the
 alpha series (so it will eventually be in stable at some point), given the
 current plan outlined in #29430.

 For my reference when should I have a new tag of utls and obfs4proxy by?
 There's a number of fixes I feel are required in the former, but my free
 time over the next few weeks will be even tighter than it usually is.

 > I mean testing a transport based on ESNI in an alpha (which needs an
 extension) should not be a problem once that is ready and we could easily
 review the extension and tor-browser-build integration then.

 Adding ESNI to utls is likely fairly straight forward if that's the sort
 of thing people care about.
