Drop 'Profile UDP transport protocols'
Yawning asked for this to be removed as it's likely too big for students this
summer.

- There are <a
- href="https://research.torproject.org/techreports/datagram-comparison-2011-11-07.pdf">lots
- of options</a> as to how Tor could send its data over UDP rather than TCP,
- and some will likely perform significantly better than others. This project
- will evaluate these options, so as to decide which should be used in future
- versions of Tor. A first step will be to benchmark the various transport
- protocols being considered, in terms of performance and also code quality,
- including userspace TCP, <a
- href="https://github.com/bittorrent/libutp">μTP</a>, <a
- href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_Control_Transmission_Protocol">SCTP</a>
- and <a href="http://curvecp.org/">CurveCP</a>. Initially these transport
- protocols will be examined in isolation, but if the project progresses well
- one or more could be integrated in Tor.
