[tor-project] Marco's Status Report September 2022

[msim via tor-project <tor-project@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi o/

This month I continued the WebRTC work for Sponsor 131. To recap, S131 is base browser (tor browser, without tor), and as part of base browser, S131 wants WebRTC enabled.

This month I continued debugging issues with WebRTC at runtime. Most of this testing was done with WebRTC Samples[1], and some more was done with Mozilla's test page[2]. Various weird issues were encountered, and trying to figure out what Mingw is doing that's breaking it is, well, a challenge :). Ticketed issues are visible on my fork of Tor Browser[3], and after some testing, PieroV also investigated (thanks!) and provided some super helpful information. 

Unfortunately, due to being busy with some other commitments, I won't be able to continue working on this until the last week of November. At some point in the near future, I will try to write some more comprehensive notes on what's breaking in case anyone wishes to have a look between now and the end of November :)

All the best!
-Marco
