Folks:

Tahoe-LAFS is one of the featured projects at the GNU 30th Birthday
Party Hackathon!

https://www.gnu.org/gnu30/celebration

I'm going to be there in person in Cambridge. What I want to do during
the Hackathon is make Tahoe-LAFS work better with Tor and/or I2P. I
know that at least a couple of Tor developers and at least one I2P
developer will be there in person, so this is a good opportunity to
collaborate face-to-face or side-by-side.

One thing I could spend Hackathon time on is just to contribute some
patch review service to the Tor project, if it seems like they want
that.

Issue tickets relevant to this:

Go to https://Tahoe-LAFS.org, click on "View Tickets" →
https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/wiki/ViewTickets , click on
"anonymity" → https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/query?status=!closed&keywords=~anonymity&order=priority

Eyeballing those, I recognize the following as especially ripe,
because the I2P folks have been working on them and flagging them as
blockers for I2P: #68, #1010.

https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/68# implement
distributed introduction, remove Introducer as a single point of
failure

https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/1010# use only 127.0.0.1
as local address

See also a couple of patches that the I2P people are trying to
contribute to foolscap, and which are also needed for full
Tahoe-LAFS+I2P integration:

You can join in! Just connect to us on IRC -- irc.freenode.net channel
#tahoe-lafs -- or physically show up in Cambridge. Or, I suppose, at
one of the other GNU 30th Birthday celebrations around the world:
