rollout) makes this not as urgent as it otherwise might be

onyinyang: 2023-06-06
Last week(s):
- Finished key rotation implementation
- Working toward building tor-browser with lox-wasm binary to
help out with
integration work as needed
- Preparation for MSR talk
Next week:
- MSR talk
- Work on outstanding milestone issues:
https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/lox/-/milestones/1#tab-issues
- prepare for end to end testing of the Lox system with
browser integration
Later:
- begin implementing some preliminary user feedback mechanism
to identify bridge blocking based on Vecna's work
- improve metrics collection/think about how to show Lox is
working/valuable
- sketch out Lox blog post/usage notes for forum
(long term things were discussed at the meeting!):
https://pad.riseup.net/p/tor-ac-community-azaleas-room-keep
- brainstorming grouping strategies for Lox buckets (of
bridges) and gathering context on how types of bridges are distributed/use in
practice
Question: What makes a bridge usable for a given user,
and how can we encode that to best ensure we're getting the most appropriate
resources to people?
1. Are there some obvious grouping strategies
that we can already consider?
e.g., by PT, by bandwidth (lower
bandwidth bridges sacrificed to open-invitation buckets?), by locale (to be
matched with a requesting user's geoip or something?)
2. Does it make sense to group 3
bridges/bucket, so trusted users have access to 3 bridges (and untrusted users
have access to 1)? More? Less?
