So can anyone bring up any specific issues that may be caused by the
change?
We are collecting these issues as child tickets of this bug:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2880
As an aside, we also are collecting a similar set of issues for the
removal of an HTTP proxy entirely from the tor distribution:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2844
My normal use case is to run Tor on a computer different from the
computer which is running the browser. I then use ssh to either tunnel
the HTTP proxy connection to an instance of Privoxy running on the same
computer that is running Tor or I tunnel the output from Privoxy on the
computer running the browser to port 9050 on the computer running Tor.
(I use both methods depending on which computer I am browsing from.) I
have not yet figured out how your proposal effects these use cases.
Should I decide to add entries to the tracker, does one have to register
to do so?
Jim
