*** status report 2014/10 **** Isis' October 2014: Review In October 2014, I recieved my contract in the second week and began working on setting up a Persona server to test its use as a mechanism for "helping internet services accept anonymous users." [0] I sent a shorter, simpler explanation of the issues which I encountered which make Persona unusable for our purposes to the tor-dev mailing list, [1] while the longer explanation may be found in the comments on #12193. [2] I then spent the majority of the remainder of my work hours trying to brainstorm organisational ideas for the PT/Bridge teams, drafting a proposal to fund bridge-related work and submitting it, and assisting with the editing of another proposal.

(#9380) * Writing integration tests for BridgeDB's new database backends.
