  23. External constraints:
  24. - mid July
  25. W - Take the results from instrumenting directory downloads on Tor
  26. clients, and analyze/simulate some alternate approaches. Finish
  27. proposal for how to improve things, iterate based on feedback,
  28. convince us that the anonymity tradeoffs and/or scalability
  29. tradeoffs are acceptable.
  30. - mid August
  31. KS - Design hidden service improvements, evaluate them and consider
  32. security properties: write some proposals, get feedback, revise
  33. them, etc.
  34. ? - nlnet 'user safety contest'. submit torbrowser, others?
  35. - end of August
  36. I - Auto update
  37. o Vidalia learns when Tor thinks it should be updated
  38. R - Tor status events should suggest a new version to switch to
  39. I - Figure out a good PKI, document the design, assess security issues:
  40. "write a proposal"
  41. - Vidalia fetches the new one via Tor when possible, but fetches
  42. it without Tor "when necessary", whatever that means.
  43. - Give an interface for notifying the user, and letting her
  44. decide to fetch and decide to swap out the old Tor for the new.
  45. - Do the same for Polipo
  46. - and for Vidalia itself
  47. - end of September
  48. NSE - Write first draft of research study for Paul's research problem.
  49. This should be at least vaguely related to what was discussed in
  50. the end-of-May deliverable.
  51. - mid October
  52. KS - Finish implementation of hidden service improvements: have a set
  53. of patches that you think work.
  54. W - Finish implementation of directory overhead changes: have a set
  55. of patches that you think work.
  56. - mid January
  57. KS - Finish testing, debugging, unit testing, etc the hidden service
  58. changes. Have it in the development version and in use.
  59. W - Finish testing, debugging, unit testing, etc the directory overhead
  60. changes. Have it in the development version and in use.
