Hello All, I just wanted to ask if there is anybody working on a GSoC application for Tor (Tor Exit Scanner improvements especially) already, and, if not, what do you think about proposing a rewrite of Torflow Perl files (soat.pl, speedracer.pl and stream-server.pl) into Python?
I know that the exact project is rather about improvements than rewriting, but I don't think that I will be able to do it all in three months (one of the reasons is that I haven't coded in Perl for a few years now; all I got is a few Perl books and spaghetti-flashbacks of my Perl code ;-)). What I would like to do is to rewrite files mentioned above and add HTML parser to it (possibly Beautiful Soup). I have already submitted two applications. First is for Google (my own sociological project; I guess it won't make it), and second is for Python Software Foundation (patching bugs from the Bug Tracker). The sociological thing is a priority for me, but I am not too optimistic about its acceptance. Patching bugs for Python is OK, but PSF is a crowded place and it is hard to get any feedback from PSF mentors as they are overloaded with apps, I guess. So, if there still is a place to fill, please, let me know. Thank you for your time! Regards, Wojtek Walczak
