[tor-reports] Pearl Crescent report for April 2014

[Mark Smith]

Tor-related work that the Pearl Crescent team (Kathy Brade and me) did 
in April:

* Participated in the weekly TBB dev meetings on IRC.

* Took one week off (vacation).

* Made more progress on using the Firefox-based updater for TBB.
   Mainly, we spent time reorganizing the TBB directory structure
   to be more like Firefox's, which will simplify the Firefox
   updater patches and also fix other problems (e.g., two icons
   in the Mac OS dock).
