 Replying to [comment:9 tup]:
 > Is there any interest in someone (me) adapting the old tordnsel code for
 this ticket and updating it for the current tor? Is tordnsel fundamentally
 broken in design or implementation, or is it just abandoned and nobody
 wants to maintain it?

 Yes! It would be great to update it. It's not broken by design, so far as
 we can tell, but it sure doesn't have many (any) haskell-speaking
 maintainers.

 I think the two most urgent development tasks are:
 1) Make tordnsel build happily on the later version of Haskell that
 current Debian stable ships.
 2) Fix the check.torproject.org cgi to pull in a text file of IP
 addresses, and check whether the user is in the list. Doing dns queries
 and stuff from the cgi for every user request is breaking check.
