Marking as DEAD. Please do not delete these (go ahead and put them in a DEAD directory if you would like, though). I intend on revisiting them as soon as I finish up with more immediate Tor tasks and lower hanging fruit. I still believe the barriers are fundamentally engineering problems rather than theoretical problems, but I do agree the proposals need a rewrite to do a more clear job of enumerating and organizing the anonymity considerations so that they are easier to grok. The prose in 115 can get a bit thick.. (And to put into perspective any fears that the anonymity issues of two hop paths are too hairy to ever try to solve, I contend that anonymity under Firefox is a far more fearsome beast ;) -- Mike Perry Mad Computer Scientist fscked.org evil labs
