</ul>

<p>We also have many project-lets: short-term or self-contained tasks
that would be really helpful for somebody to tackle so we can keep
focusing on Tor.</p>

<p>Writing project-lets:</p>
<ul>
<li>Does somebody want to help maintain this website, or help with
documentation, or help with managing our TODO and handling bug reports?</li>
<li>We may have too <i>much</i> documentation. It's spread out too far
and duplicates itself in places. Can you help us consolidate?</li>
<li>Please help translate the web page and documentation
into other languages. See the <a href="translation.html">translation guidelines</a> 
if you want to help out. (Examples:
<a href="http://membres.lycos.fr/geolemalin/anonymat_garantit.htm">French</a>
, <a href="http://tor.freesuperhost.com/">Persian</a> and 
<a href="http://www.gamevn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=103346">Vietnamese</a>.)</li>
<li>Sistemare <a
href="http://wiki.noreply.org/wiki/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ">le FAQ Wiki</a>,
e se conosci la risposta di qualche "FAQ senza risposta" non esitare a rispondere.</li>
</ul>

<p>Packaging project-lets:</p>
<ul>
<li>We're always looking for better Windows installers. Specifically,
it would be great if somebody were to extend our NSIS-based windows
installer to include FreeCap and Privoxy.</li>
<li>Our OS X installer can't be uninstalled. Are there non-sucky OS X
packagers that have uninstall capabilities? This is becoming an
increasing bother.</li>
</ul>

<p>Organizational and application testing project-lets:</p>
<ul>
<li>We've got a list of potentially useful programs you might
run with Tor <a href="users.html">here</a>. We also have the <a
href="http://wiki.noreply.org/wiki/TheOnionRouter/TorifyHOWTO">Torify
howto</a>. Can somebody try them out, simplify the explanations, expand
them where they need it, document them better, and make them all-around
more useful?</li>
</ul>

<p>Programmer and developer project-lets:</p>
<ul>
<li>We need somebody to code up a GUI or other
controller program, to do configuration, etc. See our <a
href="cvs/tor/doc/control-spec.txt">control specification</a> for details,
and the <a href="cvs/tor/contrib/TorControl.py">rudimentary demonstration
Python control script</a>. No, we don't know what the interface should look
like.  You can use any license you want, but we'd recommend 3-clause BSD or
maybe GPL; and we can only help out if your license conforms to the
<a href="http://www.debian.org/social_contract.html#guidelines">DFSG</a>.</li>
<li>Periodically people running servers tells us they want to have one
BandwidthRate during some part of the day, and a different BandwidthRate
at other parts of the day. Rather than coding this inside Tor, we should
have a little script that speaks via the Tor Controller Interface, and does
a setconf to change the bandwidth rate. Perhaps it would run out of cron,
or perhaps it would sleep until appropriate times and then do its tweak
(that's probably more portable). Can somebody write one for us and we'll
put it inside <a href="cvs/tor/contrib/">tor/contrib/</a>?</li>
<li>Does somebody want to do up a patch so we can be an NT service? Or
so we can go in the system tray?</li>
<li>A good (portable, fast, clean, BSD-free) asynchronous DNS library
would be really handy, so we don't have to keep forking DNS worker
threads to do gethostbyname.</li>
<li>Can somebody take a look at Martin's <a
href="http://wiki.noreply.org/wiki/TheOnionRouter/SquidProxy">Squid
and Tor</a> page, and update it to reflect Tor's
<a href="http://tor.eff.org/tor-manual.html">RedirectExit</a> config
option?</li>
<li>See the <a href="cvs/tor/doc/TODO">TODO</a> and
<a href="cvs/tor/doc/HACKING">HACKING</a> files in the Tor distribution
for more ideas.</li>
</ul>

<p>Security project-lets: We need people to attack the implementation
and clean it up, and also to attack the design and experiment with
defenses.</p>
<ul>
<li>We need somebody to <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzz_testing">fuzz</a> Tor. Are there
good libraries out there for what we want? What are the first steps? Win
fame by getting credit when we put out a new release because of you!</li>
<li>Website volume fingerprinting attacks (<a
href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#back01">Back et al</a>, <a
href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#hintz02">Hintz</a>).
Defenses include a large cell size, <a
href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#timing-fc2004">defensive dropping</a>,
etc. How well does each approach work?</li>
<li>The end-to-end traffic confirmation attack. We need to study
long-range dummies more, along with traffic shaping. How much traffic
of what sort of distribution is needed before the adversary is confident
he has won?</li>
<li>It's not that hard to DoS Tor servers or dirservers. Are puzzles
the right answer? What other practical approaches are there?</li>
<li>What sensitive info squeaks by privoxy? Are other html scrubbers
better?</li>
</ul>

<p>Designer project-lets:</p>
<ul>
<li>Server CPU load is high because clients keep asking to make new
circuits, which uses public key crypto. Possible defenses include:
using helper nodes (fixed entry nodes); rate limiting the number of
create cells handled per second; having clients retry failed extensions
a few times; implementing ssl sessions; and using hardware crypto when
available.</li>
<li>We fear we might not work very well when servers have asymmetric
bandwidth. Because Tor has separate TCP connections between each hop,
if the incoming bytes are arriving just fine and the outgoing bytes
are all getting dropped on the floor, the TCP push-back mechanisms
don't really transmit this information back to the incoming streams.
Perhaps Tor should detect when it's dropping a lot of outgoing packets,
and rate-limit incoming streams to regulate this itself? We need somebody
who's good with networks to simulate this and help design solutions.</li>
<li>Right now the hidden service descriptors are being stored on the
dirservers, but any reliable distributed storage system would do (for
example, a DHT that allows authenticated updates). Can somebody figure
out our best options and decide if they're good enough?</li>
<li>How hard is it to patch bind or a DNS proxy to redirect requests
to Tor via our tor-resolve socks extension? What about to convert UDP
DNS requests to TCP requests and send them through Tor?</li>
<li>Tor provides anonymous connections, but if you want to keep multiple
pseudonyms in practice (say, in case you frequently go to two websites
and if anybody knew about both of them they would conclude it's you),
we don't support that well yet. We should find a good approach and
interface for handling pseudonymous profiles in Tor. See <a
href="http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/Dec-2004/msg00086.html">this
post</a> and <a
href="http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/Jan-2005/msg00007.html">followup</a>
for details.</li>
