Re: [tor-dev] Coordination of censorship analysis tool

Hi everyone!

Like Tobias, I am willing to devote my spare time to the tool and see through its completion and further maintenance. I am not really bounded by any time constraints.

Currently I am familiarizing myself with Twisted and OONI and excited about kick-starting the project as soon as possible!

Dividing the project into sub-parts seems like a nice idea. I welcome any suggestions on how we can go about it.

Tobias: We could use git until we are good enough to push it on the Tor servers. What do you say?

You can find me in #tor-dev as dkathayat.

Cheers.

Deepak

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
