Hey everyone.

I'm doing this in my spare time; not as part of anything school-related.
As such, I'm not under any real time constraints. 

As for what I can/want to do, I do have some prior experience with
Twisted, and I've familiarized myself a bit with ooni's API. If the
project is to be divided into sub-projects, perhaps the logical thing
would be for me to continue working on implementing tests. 

When it comes to version control, I agree that Git is the best option.
I've been meaning to set up a Git-repo on my server and use that instead
of my current svn-repo, so I guess that is one option. Although It might
be better to host it on Tors servers.

You can find me in #tor-dev under the nick edagar.

Tobias
