Likely Mentors: <i>George (asn), David Goulet (dgoulet)</i>
<br><br>
<p>
We're working on a revamp of the entire Tor hidden service design to
improve the security and reliability of the hidden service system.
The hidden services team is busy implementing <a
href="https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/224-rend-spec-ng.txt">proposal
224</a> but we are always open to mentoring fun and exciting hidden
service projects.
</p>
<p>
This is a big project: see
<a href="https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/224-rend-spec-ng.txt">proposal
224</a> for the latest design. Are you interested in implementing some
part of that?
In the past, we've mentored a wide variety of projects related to hidden
services, ranging from <a
href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2016-April/010832.html">onion
search engines</a>, <a
href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2015-May/037966.html">to
scaling techniques for hidden services</a>,
and also various approaches
of making onion services more <a
href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2012-June/003588.html">usable</a>
<a href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2015-May/008826.html">by
common people</a>.
</p>
<p>
This is a very ambitious project, so we're deliberately not suggesting
particular sub-topics. If you're interested in participating, try to
read and understand the <a
href="https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/rend-spec.txt">existing
design</a> and the design proposal for the new design, and then talk to
us about what part you want to work on.
</p>
<p>
As part of the application process for this project, please contribute a
nontrivial patch to Tor -- ideally, one that will affect some part of
the codebase that you want to work on.
Let us know if you have a project you would like to work on, or check
our proposals and technical documents for <a
href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2016-October/011514.html">various</a>
ideas.
