[tor-reports] Georg's July 2014

[Georg Koppen]

Hi,

here are the highlights of my work during July 2014. I spent
considerable time:

-investigating the intermittent failures and non-deterministic behavior
in our mingw-w64 setup[1][2]
-debugging Pluggable Transports + proxy failures on Windows[3]
-preparing our Linux toolchain for Firefox ESR 31[4][5]

Furthermore I:

-debugged VTV crashes[6]
-prepared a fix for Tor Browser hangs due to click on New Identity[7]
-created tickets according to the TBB roadmap and adapted the TBB section[8]
-investigated reproducibility failures while building for different
branches[9]
-reviewed and/or merged some patches[10][11][12][13]14][15][16][17][18]
-looked at some tickets to select candidates for the TWN
-did some work with respect to Tor Browser tickets after the first round
of ticket clean-up
-talked to Günes Acar at PETS about the Panopticlick project[19]

Georg
