[tor-reports] Georg's March 2016

[Georg Koppen]

Hi,

This month I spent most of my time with the following tasks:

-helping with releases (5.5.3, 5.5.4, 6.0a3, 6.0a4, 6.0a3-hardened,
6.0a4-hardened)
-OS X signing[1][2]: It feels we are close here: signing basically works
but it turns out we need a different certificate. The current one we
have is for the app store and Gatekeeper does not like it.
-trying to get our toolchains and Tor Browser branch ready for switching
to Firefox ESR 45[3][4][5][6][7]

Moreover, I

-helped with various proposals for the Panopticlick GSoC project[8]
-wrote some patches (e.g. for checking our MAR signatures[9] and
adapted the security slider to Mozilla's chemspill release[10)
-reviewed/merged patches (e.g. [11][12])
-triaged/investigated bugs (e.g.[13][14][15][16][17])
-tried to get hardened nightly builds going[18]
