Dropping 'Improving TorBirdy'
When I've spoken with Sukhbir he mentioned that he doesn't think there's enough torbirdy tasks remaining to fill a summer. We can add this back in if he changes his mind.

TorBirdy is under active development and is available from <a
|
|
||||||
href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy">our wiki</a>
|
|
||||||
and <a

The goal of this project is to improve TorBirdy by:
|
|
||||||
</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ul>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
Writing a Thunderbird patch to plug known leaks. We have already <a
|
|
||||||
href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776397">submitted a
|
|
||||||
patch to Thunderbird</a> but we anticipate there will be much more work
|
|
||||||
required before it is accepted, possibly involving rewriting the entire
|
|
||||||
patch; this appears trivial, but it is not, as we are proposing a
|
|
||||||
completely new privacy-safe message-ID header generation algorithm for
|
|
||||||
Thunderbird.
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
Implementing a JavaScript HTTP proxy (see the <a
|
|
||||||
href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6958">ticket</a>)
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
<li>
|
|
||||||
Auditing TorBirdy for leaks and for use with other add-ons (as an
|
|
||||||
example see its <a
|
|
||||||
href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6319">ticket</a>)
|
|
||||||
</li>
|
|
||||||
</ul>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p>
|
|
||||||
A student undertaking this project should have some C++ and JavaScript
|
|
||||||
development experience. Previous experience with Firefox/Thunderbird
|
|
||||||
extension development is a plus, but not required.
