[tor-dev] Event at NEXA center and next OONI dev meeting

[Arturo Filastò]

Hello Oonitarians!

We skipped this weeks meeting due to a lot of us being busy with an
event at the NEXA center.

It was a very interesting opportunity to meet a lot of great network
measurement and network neutrality researchers and discuss possible
areas of collaboration.

I will give a brief summary of some of the most relevant things WRT OONI.

# Libight hackfest

On the first day we did a hackfest on libight. At the end of it we were
able to produce a build of libight for iOS [1] as well as a mockup of
the GUI [2].

We also finished the integration of the SOCKS client [3] that will allow
us to use tor from libight.

Overall we are quite close to having a working prototype for iOS and
soon also for Android.

# NNTools meeting

Enrico Gregori and Valerio Luconi from Italian National Research Council
presented their work on Portolan, that is trying to map BGP
interconnections with traceroutes. They have developed a desktop and
mobile application that is very cool and works well!

Later we discussed about possible collaborations, in particular
deploying their tests as part of our raspberry pi deployment.

For the full schedule of events see: http://nexa.polito.it/nntools2015

Regarding the next developer meeting I am going to suggest we do it as
usual on Monday at 19:00 CET (18:00 UTC).

That's it, until next week!

Have fun!

~ Arturo
