[tor-relays] Happy New Year!

[Shari Steele]

Hey all.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for 
working on Tor over the past year(s).  We are entering 2018 in really great 
shape, and we would not be here without your hard work.

- The Tor network and browser teams have grown over the past year and are full 
of amazing talent.  They've added new features and tightened security in 2017, 
and they'll be focused on increasing our usability and mobile adoption in 2018.
- The whole Tor Project staff grew quite a bit, and we hired several long-time 
contractors and volunteers into employee status.
- Our financials are stable.  We've started receiving more funding from non-US 
government sources, and our end-of-year campaign looks to have been a big 
success.  We won't know the exact totals until we get into the office tomorrow 
and add in all of the checks we've received over the past week, but even 
without those checks, this has been our best end-of-year fundraising campaign 
yet.
- We had two great all-hands meetings in 2017 in Amsterdam and Montreal.
- We have been strengthening our important relationship with Mozilla.

Thanks to everyone who contributes to making Tor so great, whether you are an 
employee, contractor, or volunteer.  I'd like to extend a special thanks to 
some of you who we don't thank nearly enough--those of you who run the Tor 
network as relay operators and directory authorities and countless other 
volunteer roles.  We couldn't do this without you!

I wish you all a healthy and happy 2018!
Shari
