[tor-project] services report - may 2018

[silvia [hiro]]

Hi all,

Here is the late report for the month of may about what has happened in
services.

Have been working on testing and tuning the support portal. It is now
live at https://support.torproject.orga few things are under WIP at the
moment but soon it will have some very nice features. Like allow for
links to be translated, so that we will have better seo.

Investigated and tested the support portal search application [1].

Started migrating newsletter to Lektor and styleguide. This is now ready
to be launched.

Created an elasticsearch testbed in docker-compose to analyse raw log
data via kibana. This is supposed to be used as a prototype for more
complex projects. Currently it is configured to download onionperf tpf
files and import them so that they can be accessed as indexed data via
kibana [3].

Lektor package has been submitted so it might be approved and available
through the backports soon.

Continued consolidating the test services infrastructure where things
like onionperf and oniongit run. In the long term, the objective is to
manage everything through saltstack [4], a configuration management
software similar to ansible. This will be a long term effort.

Updated oniongit dns. It should be much faster now!

Sent a small merge request to ooni to parse fallback dirs list to csv [5]
