+    <p>Vidalia's configuration handling has changed in the alpha branch. Now

+    every Tor option is saved in the torrc file. With that change, the

+    Hidden Service configuration panel was removed due to its specificity

+    and its multiple bugs.</p>

+    

+    <p>The idea would be to provide the new Torrc class' functionality to the

+    Plugin Engine and with that, create a better Hidden Service

+    configuration panel as a plugin.</p>

+    

+    <p>A person undertaking this project should have good UI design, layout

+    skills and some C++ development experience. Previous experience with Qt

+    and Qt's Designer will be very helpful, but are not required. Javascript

+    knowledge is a plus, but it shouldn't be a problem if the person

+    complies with the previous requirements.</p>
