[tor-dev] Next Tor release timeframes?

2012-08-08 Thread Roger Dingledine
1) Do we have any requirements to release an 0.2.4.1-alpha at any particular date? I haven't been following e.g. the latest SponsorG timelines. 2) Nick was enthusiastic about an 0.2.2.38 with the latest fix. Nick, do you still think that's important? My sense is that it's a totally esoteric

[tor-dev] http_apache_steg_t is working now

[tor-dev] Is it possible to run private Exit nodes?

2012-08-08 Thread SiNA Rabbani
I have been running private bridges for my VIP contacts for a long time. I use PublishServerDescriptor 0 to keep my bridges private. Is it possible to also run a private Exit node? What would happen, if I hard coded an exit into my torrc that is not published (if possible at all)? All the best,

[tor-dev] Another key exchange algorithm for extending circuits: alternative to ntor?

Hi, all! Michael Backes, Aniket Kate, and Esfandiar Mohammadi have a paper in submission called, An Efficient Key-Exchange for Onion Routing. It's meant to be more CPU-efficient than the proposed ntor handshake. With permission from Esfandiar, I'm sending a link to the paper here for discussion.

Remove (or move) the port's ‘work’ directory and run ‘make’. (You can't easily *install* an upgraded or recompiled FreeBSD port or package without removing the old one, though.) That's possible yes. Or you can use -f flag with portupgrade. However this is not the point.
