Hi, First post on the list \o/
I'd like to help in writing documentation (I've already been given a lot of link about how to do it, don't worry). This ticket seems to be a good start : https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5641 > The best way to start writing those things would be to come > up with a sketch of headlines, important points, structure, placement > for the doc, etc. and send it to Tails-dev. headlines, important points, structure : - explication about Tor circuits -- 3 hops //maybe we can merge it with the next one : - geographic size of the circuit -> latency -- Tor takes nodes in different countries - multiple round trip -- Tor is TCP and TCP is three way handshake but Optimistic Data is coming, waiting for 0.2.4 to be stable -- Nodes are hosted on adsl which add more latency than servers in datacenter/on FTTH - Tor lacks capacity /** I took this from this from https://svn.torproject.org/svn/projects/roadmaps/2009-03-11-performance.pdf, I don't know if it's still actuall **/ -- Help non profit like Torservers, Nos oignons, DFRI and so on. - Tor usage -- Don't do P2P on Tor, there's I2P instead, and it's even shipped with Tails :-) placement for the doc : it was suggested that it belongs rather to the tpo (torproject.org) website but as long as they don't provide the possibility for translation, we keep it in the Tails site and once they offer the ability, we move it to tpo. It convinces me :) So where to put it in the wiki ? - Doc/General Information (a.k.a about) - another new part ? The 'already existing' "Can I hide the fact that I'm using Tails" and the future 'explain why Tails ships Tor' (issue #6018) doesn't have (IMHO) their place in the 'about' part of the doc so maybe we can put it in the about and once we have the three docs done, create another part for them. Not so sure, actually :p Any input ? -- Vigdis
