Hi Israel, Following are my comments on your proposal[1], that I've mentioned on IRC earlier today. Sukhbir, Roger and others are more than welcome to share their inputs. 1- wrt cloud-storage mirrors and private git-repo, ideally the links shouldn't be stored anywhere at all. Sending an email to gettor should be the only way to get a link. Maybe we should generate unique URLs for each request, so in case the censors blocked or limited access to SSL, we could serve the unique links over HTTP. So the scenario in my mind is something like: user asks for a bundle -> gettor generates new urls on cloud (either by fetching the latest bundle from dist or recycling old urls) -> reply to user with urls, keeps the urls for a while -> then either remove or recycle the links. 2- I find Skype distribution method, a terrible idea for many reasons. Instead, we could aim for XMPP (with and without OTR support). 3- Having an smart core module to understand a request like "Give me the URL links for TBB in this language" is cool but we need to make sure it wouldn't break or cause problems when we start to get requests in 10 different languages. Just my 2cents.
