[tor-dev] GSoC Stegotorus Security Enhancement

[Noah Rahman]

Greetings all,

I've been refining the Elligator handshake to work on the circuit level for
now as opposed to the connection level[1], merging in some SRI changes[2],
especially those with respect to configuration files[3], and studying
resources in order to prepare for a possible implementation of Elligator^2
[4][5](with parts in Lua [6]) as well as understanding the new SRI JumpBox
alternative [7] to the transparent proxy that vmon developed.

Happy fireworks (for you US-based readers!)

[6]  I also can probably implement concurrency in Lua faster than in C++ or
Go, and Lua bignum libraries do exist. Also, why this numbering begins at 1
instead of zero ;p
