But now that you don't have a "Search API" project, what are you going to do during the Globaleaks integration?
The search API was supposed to be a query API to the ahmia's database. However, this is not a relevant feature at the moment.
Also, are you sure that 1-3 workdays are sufficient to design & implement a banned domain synchronizer between tor2web and ahmia?
Well, I cannot know that. Let's put one workweek for that. I am hoping to spend a workday or two with Tor2web and we get it done.
BTW, you are supposed to do your application in Google Melange, not in this mailing list (although I'm happy you posted your app here so that more people can comment on it!). The website is: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014 The deadline is in 4 days or so, I think.
Sure!
PS: Nitpick but I should exercise my allergy to broken crypto and suggest to switch to a better hash algorithm (SHA256 or so) instead of MD5 for passing banned domain names around.
The reason we are publishing MD5sums of the banned domains is that in some countries it is illegal to own or host a list of CP URLs. Anyway, if someone is looking for CP .onions he will find them... However, I do not see any reason why we couldn't together with Tor2web change to a better hash algorithm.
