== Announcements ==
* We now have a team wiki page: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/AntiCensorshipTeam * We now have a mailing list: https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/anti-censorship-team * We now have a sysmon deployment that monitors anti-censorship infrastructure * Thanks to gman999! * Monitors BridgeDB, snowflake machines, GetTor, default Tor Browser bridges. * cohosh and phw are getting alerts over email. * Anyting else that you want monitored?
== Discussion ==
* What GetTor-related material should we include in Sponsor 19 & in anti-censorship team roadmap? * hiro wants to be the new mantainer of GetTor. * Do we have a backup maintainer? * For the roadmap, the update from hiro has a list ( https://nc.riseup.net/s/na23xE4MJH2rsoD ) of what could be included: * automation * monitoring * deploy new code * Report Writing * report 1: status of anti-censorship at Tor * report 2: plans for anti-censorship at Tor <-- final report * anything else? * Let's start the meeting sooner to make it easier for non-NA participants? * moving it to 1700 UTC * Retire default bridges that went offline? * Metrics team want us to be careful (while we still do not have a guide but soon we will) on data collection. Let's check with them once there is a review #21315 * dcf: purging unsanitized Snowflake logs - see https://bugs.torproject.org/30125#comment:7 * #30125 will sanitize the snowflake logs. I'd like us to commit to a deadline for doing something with the old pre-sanitization logs, or else deleting them. * What specific statistics or visualizations do you want from the old logs? We can make sure to retain the information to make those possible, before deleting the originals.
* Lets review roadmap briefly. Is there anything that you are working on that is not in the in-progress column? https://storm.torproject.org/shared/knaG2lEzepdsCC21DYk4dD4hRtwcUGnXQvalH1sK... * Code reviews assignment?
