Using Bittorrent for Content Distribution in Thandy

by Sebastian Hahn for The Electronic Frontier Foundation/The Tor Project

Thandy is the secure software updater developed by the Tor project to assist users with keeping their Tor related software up to date. I intend to resolve one of the issues that prevent deployment as of now, which is the content distribution issue. To achieve this goal, I will include libtorrent in Thandy; as well as set up a Tracker with the ability to learn about new Thandy packages.
