I believe the widespread community concerns about the trustworthiness of the Tor Project are rooted in Tor's secret internal politics. Tickets legacy/trac#1971 and legacy/trac#19690 both show that these internal politics are spilling over into the technical realm, too. This needs to stop. I suggest a new strategy: full transparency for all internal operations. Everything about the Tor project should be immediately and publicly visible. Complete archives of lists like dir-auth should also be made available
