 Welcome to the twenty-first issue in 2015 of Tor Weekly News, the weekly
 newsletter that covers what’s happening in the Tor community.

+New faces in the Tor community

-Feature 1 with cited source [XXX]
+Since the beginning of the year, the Tor Project, Inc. has made two
+exciting new additions to its core team. Kate Krauss is Tor’s new
+Director of Communications, working with journalists and activists to
+make sure information about the Tor Project’s work gets to groups in
+need and to the public at large. She has two decades’ worth of
+experience in non-profit communications and outreach, earned at
+pioneering AIDS advocacy groups ACT UP and the AIDS Policy Project, and
+has also contributed to projects working against censorship and
+surveillance.

+Isabela Bagueros is Tor’s new Project Manager, coordinating the numerous
+moving parts of Tor’s research, development, and outreach activities,
+and ensuring smooth interaction between funders, developers, users, and
+other communities. An active member of the free software community both
+in Brazil and internationally, she contributed to the migration of
+Brazilian government IT systems to free software, and has spent the last
+four years working on growth and internationalization at Twitter. See
+the press release on the Tor blog [XXX] to learn more about Kate and
+Isabela, and the experience they bring to Tor.
+
+Another newly-launched collaboration is that between the Tor Project
+and Sue Gardner, former executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation
+and award-winning activist for Internet freedom, transparency, and
+investigative journalism. Sue will be expanding on her recent informal
+advisory role to help develop a long-term organizational strategy for
+Tor; this will involve public consultations with members of the Tor
+Project and the wider Tor community “to develop a plan for making Tor as
+effective and sustainable as it can be”, as Roger Dingledine wrote on
+the Tor blog [XXX]. Thanks to First Look Media [XXX] for making this
+project possible!
+
+These new relationships are already bearing fruit in many areas of Tor’s
+day-to-day operation. More new arrivals are expected in the near future,
+too: while the board of directors handles the process of transitioning to
+a new Executive Director following the departure of Andrew Lewman [XXX],
+the Tor Project is looking for an Executive Administrator [XXX] to help
+meet its administrative and organizational needs in a time of rapid
+growth and development. If this sounds like something you want to be in
+on, please see the job description for the full details and instructions
+for applying.

+Donncha O’Cearbhaill, one of the students in Tor’s first-ever Summer of
+Privacy program [XXX], introduced [XXX] his project for the summer — improving

+feedback from onion service operators concerning “the use-cases,
