+For the past few years, Tor has taken part in Google’s Summer of Code
+mentoring program, with many positive contributions made and several
+projects launched or redeveloped as a result; this year, however, the
+program has been scaled back somewhat, and longstanding participants
+like the Tor Project, Mozilla, and the Linux Foundation have been
+“dropped to make way for newcomers”, as Damian Johnson noted in his
+monthly report [see above]. If you’d still like to join the community of
+Tor developers, don’t be deterred: see the Volunteer page [XXX] for a
+wealth of ideas for getting started.
-Tor help desk roundup
----------------------

-Summary of some questions sent to the Tor help desk.
+The British Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology, “charged
+with providing independent and balanced analysis of policy issues that
+have a basis in science and technology”, issued a briefing paper on the
+subject of “the darknet and online anonymity” [XXX].
-News from Tor StackExchange

-Text with cited source [XXX].
+arm [XXX] is the status monitor of choice for Tor relay operators
+everywhere; unfortunately, the name is easily confused with that of the
+ARM processor family, so lead developer Damian Johnson is poised [XXX]
+to change the program’s name to “Seth”: “Any strong reasons to pick
+something else? Nothing is set in stone yet so still open to
+alternatives.”
