End of March, I started another short contract with Tor to help with:

- S131: Mullvad Browser system installer
- S101: Usability testing of Tor VPN

In April,

- S09

   Finished preparing the material for the user research and
   onboarded the 3 partners who are going to do the research in East
   Africa in April-May.

   Helped @pierov and @ruihildt with their discussion on the Mullvad
   Browser installer and drew 2 iterations of mockups for the whole flow.

- S101

   Discussed a timeline and scope for the usability tests and
   drafted tasks and interview questions.

   The tests are scheduled for May 20-26 in Mexico City, while you're all
   busy in Portugal :)

   Prepared a screening survey and started recruiting for the tests.

   Tested 0.5.0 and 0.6.0 and reported 3 important bugs that should be
   fixed before we do the usability tests.
