Hi,

Thanks for bringing this up once more! The topic seems to recur even 
more frequently than once a year around here.

Two recent and relevant discussions:

Your colleague Lane Rasberry started a similar thread earlier this year 
and an accompanying IdeaLab page, read more here:
https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-weekly-news-%E2%80%94-february-19th-2014 
(third item down) and 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Partnership_between_Wikimedia_community_and_Tor_community

Not Wikimedia-specific, but Roger Dingledine recently wrote about paths 
to letting web services feel they can accept anonymous users, and 
mentioned an upcoming project on Wikipedia at the end:
https://blog.torproject.org/blog/call-arms-helping-internet-services-accept-anonymous-users

It would be good if the experience of these and other previous 
discussions could be built upon, otherwise I fear this topic will 
continue to circle morosely on the luggage carousel of things that ought 
to be done, with no takers.

Thank you for running an exit relay!
