Replied there, but off-topic as far as this very thread is concerned.

#8220 is a subtask of #6880: to test the thing, we need an ISO first.

All current Polipo users that are being migrated to torsocks (see
subtasks of #5379) should be tested with torsocks 2.x. So, I think the
branch for #6880/#8220 you're working on should be based on
feature/5379-remove-polipo.

Done in Tails 0.12, forget it.

I think this one can be ignored as far as the migration to torsocks
2.x is concerned.

Hoping it helped.

If you really don't want to create yourself a Redmine account, please
at least indicate on each ticket you would normally have assigned to
yourself that you're working on this. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure we'll
see duplicated effort..

Cheers,
