+## Plans for 2021
+
+ * [Making the Tor network faster & more reliable for users in Internet-repressive places ](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/issues/40143)
+   * Main large things:
+     * Proposal 325 (packed relay cells) [possibly join with prop319]
+     * Proposal 324 (congestion control)
+     * Proposal 329 (conflux)
+     * Reach item: Re-do floodflow experiment; provide relays way to specify shared machine/link
+   * Smaller things:
+     * Proposal 328 (Relay overload reporting)
+     * Proposal 291 (Two guards - ensuring it works; it seems to in CBT experiments)
+   * Long tail of bugfixes/likely issues:
+     * EWMA/KIST
+     * OOMkiller issues wrt conflux and congestion control
+     * Shadow vs live network discrepancies
+     * Refactoring ancient pieces of circuit timeouts? (seems not needed)
+ * [Arti](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/arti/-/blob/main/TODO)
+   * what do we need to have it ready for replacement of C code? Is that possible?
+     * more involvement. maybe funding.
+     * define scope for MVP
+    * what could be a reasonable timeline?
+     * by the end of the year have a client (milestones B and C completed)
+       * MILESTONE B: Secure minimal client   
+       * MILESTONE C: Client feature parity
+ * Technical debt
+   * Tooling: CI
+   * Transition to arti is the best way to tackle technical debt right now.
+ * Preparation for future work:
+   * Proposal 319 (fragmented cells) [may be needed for proof-of-work, will be needed for pq or walking onions]
+   * Proposal 321 (happy families)
+ * Walking onions (if funded)
+ * Authority contact decentralization
+ * Evaluating potential next-step cryptography (tagging + pq)
+ * Prototype of Proposal 327 (PoW over intro)
