Re: [tor-relays] Testing Golang relay implementation



Hey

Thanks for doing that! It came many times to my mind.

There were efforts on implementing Tor relay in Golang before, by
Tom van der Woerdt:
https://github.com/tvdw/gotor
Have you looked at the project?

In his blog post
https://tvdw.eu/blog/2015/01/24/implementing-a-tor-relay-from-scratch/
Tom described some issues he faced with during this work and a list of
lessons learnt.
