Hi everyone, I'll be working on arm this summer with Damian Johnson. My project is to implement the following items in arm:
* A GTK+ frontend for enhancing its appeal for casual users * Client mode improvements: -- More details in the header regarding Tor-related info such as HTTP/SSL/Socks proxies, DNS listener and proxy ports etc. Ports shall be scanned to determine whether these services are running. -- Allow users to request new identity. -- Implement path selection for specifying constraints such as number of hops in each circuit, entry/middle/exit countries, excluded countries and number of countries and oceans traversed by the path. -- A simple configuration interface for setting up Tor in bridge/relay mode. UPnP shall be used to make the process as painless as possible for the users. I write a blog at [1] which I shall be keeping regularly updated with GSoC progress. There's an archive for GSoC related posts at [2] (which also contains the posts from my last year's participation in the program). The complete proposal for my project can be read at Google Docs [3] or downloaded from [4]. I can be found idling on Freenode and OFTC in #gsoc, #tor and #tor-dev. I'm also subscribed to tor-talk and tor-dev. It's really exciting to be a part of the Tor community and I plan on sticking around after the summers as well in order to continue contributing to this wonderful piece of software.
