As far as I know, encrypted services / single onion services are at the proposal stage. As a major feature, it seems unlikely they'll be included in the next week or two. (Best to aim for 0.2.8.)

As far as Tor2Web being available in every Tor build via an explicit command-line option, is there a proposal or a ticket in Trac for that? I don't know what stage it's up to. (Again, it seems to be a major build change, and we're trying not to merge those right before the freeze. Another one for 0.2.8?)
