Comment (by arma):

 If we're smart, we'll do some of this work during the Rust transition
 anyway, since "remember why you built it that way, and explain that to the
 developer who's reimplementing it" is much of the way to "and document
 it".

 Bonus points if, as we're doing it, we figure out some sort of structured
 way to capture these past insights in a way that is easily accessible for
 future developers.

Comment (by arma):

 I agree with Nick that this is a great topic to work on. First it would
 help for alternative Tor implementations, but second it would bolster our
 habits of documenting and specifying our assumptions (we're already known
 for trying to be detailed and open and transparent, and this would be a
 great further step), and third I bet we would uncover some surprises that
 would make us think harder about ways to improve our design.

 That said, this is the sort of topic that only a few people can do most
 usefully (e.g. Nick and me), since "think about all the assumptions you
 made while designing those parts of Tor, and try to write them down" isn't
 something a new developer can pick up and do by herself. So we should
 think carefully about the timing of a funding proposal for this one, so we
 don't fall into the trap of having funding for three Nicks and being
 surprised and sad that we only have one Nick.

Comment (by nickm):

 I think this could use funding -- especially as part of an initiative to
 support or develop alternative tor implementations.

Comment:

 This ticket is tagged SponsorZ, but it looks like progress stalled four
 years ago. Is this still an active issue that needs funding?
