Comment:
Hopefully that's not despair I sense in your writing. We need a fair
amount of organization to do this right, I think. Jakes idea probably
requires a proposal of some kind, but personally I would prefer to start
out in a fresh trac ticket and close all the ones mentioned in #6023 as
dups to it as opposed to a formal tor-style proposal process. However,
Jake also insists on in-person or IRC only discussions, which limits
participation by people who aren't concurrently present... I think those
people might actually help build this thing for us, which is why I favor
trac..
We're sort of in some kind of clusterfuck-impasse on figuring out the
right way forward here as a result. I'm really sorry about that, proper.
After hearing Jake's generalized named-pipe idea, I think making a second
TBB script just for transtor is silly.. But maybe it's an acceptable
stopgap? I'm very conflicted on the immediate situation :/. It might take
us so long to figure out the "right" solution that a stopgap is
acceptable.
How about this: Maybe someone can just make the "TBB launch script pack"
and we can have publicize it around as an auxiliary package Linux users
can get independent of TBB that has scripts for launching it in Tails,
behind a transtor setup, behind a tor router, in Debian with a system Tor,
etc etc etc. That way, we wouldn't have to confuse vanilla-TBB people with
multiple launch scripts, and external people can make progress on
solution(s) without getting crushed by our process issues?
