On yatei doctor was owned by the metrics user and located on /srv/doctor.torproject.org. I've copied doctor over to cappadocicum but lack permission to move it to /srv (which is owned by root). Ideally I suspect it would be nice to have a doctor user with /srv/doctor.
After this is done it should be fine to revoke my permissions to run as the metrics user. Also, yatei's /srv/doctor.torproject.org will be safe to delete (I've commented out the doctor crontab there).

Target distros/platforms:

- EL 5/6 i686/x86_64
Requirements for the VM/chroot:
- I need root account to be able to install/update/configure packages
- unshare() syscall must be functional (e.g. OpenVZ has this problem, "unshare -m /bin/bash" will fail with operation-not-permitted even under root)
- 20-30 GB disk space; 20 GB is minimum, 30 GB is ideal
- some minimal Fedora netinstall would be enough, I'll setup the rest

As detailed in [TPA-RFC-7](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/policy/tpa-rfc-7-root), I am hereby requesting time-limited root access to the gitlab-dev server in order to test the patch work necessary for tpo/tpa/gitlab#23.
I currently have (sudo) git access to perform actions there, however I will need to do a few things as root in order to accomplish this quest:
. disable puppet on the system so it wont enforce a state that I would modify as detailed below (requires root)
. configure gitlab email sending to test the patch (requires editing /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb as root)
. disable email sending on the server to keep the server from sending confusing and incorrect notifications to users (requires root)
. be able to process the unsent mail in order to determine if the patch has properly worked (requires root)
. remove any queued mails that would be sent out by gitlab that should not be sent (requires root)
All of the above I could coordinate with TPA folks and ask them to do them when I get to those stages, but due to the limited time windows I have to do the work, having this access (temporarily) would facilitate a much speedier result.

I would like to request that `gatech.edu` be added to the white list. We have a large number of international students, and many of them are from countries that disallow access to US media networks. Having an easy way to get bridge relays would benefit these students, who may otherwise not be able to access U.S. media, and other web services (Twitter, gmail, etc.) from their home countries.

Steph is working on organizing a newsletter for Tor. One of the things we want to do is to have a permanent link of these letters so people can share them on social media etc.
This would be a simple html page with the same content used for the email. Systems like Nation Builder and Constant Contact that are used by NGOs to do mailing has an easy way to create these pages (an easy editor where you can use pretty much the same html you used to format the email version).
This ticket is to investigate if we could use the drupal we have for our blog to allow Steph to easily create these pages.
You can create pages with drupal from admin painel and the editor is very similar to publishing a blog post.
My questions re:
1. Can we first do a test using the html created for our newsletter (we have a version to test already) to create a page at our drupal (blog drupal) and see what we will have to do to get the format right? I assume things wont be as easy as a copy and paste. But giving the template will not change too much from one letter to another, getting the first one right will save time with the next ones.
2. Is there any security issue we should consider in order to do this?
I will wait to see what comes out from this investigation. We are also checking with Giant Rabbit on it. We are looking for the solution that is easy to do and be ready soon.
Once we have figure out how to create the permanent links for the newsletters, we will want to add a link to the press page: https://www.torproject.org/press/press.html.en
For an archive (index, simple page) where one could see all the past letters. Which could be kept updated manually (create a ticket for the page to be updated like we do for the press clips) or whatever is the best solution to do it.HiroHirohttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/13724Request to introduce a "Start Menu Entry" for the TOR Browser.2020-06-27T14:41:31ZTracRequest to introduce a "Start Menu Entry" for the TOR Browser.Hello There!

This is to get around the situation where the system time is known to be inaccurate but cannot be changed. For example, in an OpenVZ VPS.
(OpenVZ VPSs, aka containers, inherit the system time of the server hosting the VPS. If the administrator of the OpenVZ host is unable or unwilling to correctly set the time, then the hosted clients just have to live with the inaccuracy.)
