Hi,

I'm notoriously bad at making events like these into something productive, so I'll fittingly present my report as, essentially, a few anecdotes added to intrigeri's. :)

It wasn't so great; I had hoped some other "secure OS" people would attend in hopes of possible looking at how they could reuse it, but they didn't. In the end I got a few interesting inputs from nickm so it wasn't for nothing! :)

I'd just like to add a "feeling" I got, namely that it seemed that we all haf surprisingly similar thoughts in the future of our projects. :)

* I discusses the future of onion-grater/tor-controlport-filter with Patrick (from Whonix) quite a bit, making progress on #12179. He wants to maintain a Debian package of it, so it seems like we'll collaborate quite a bit here.

* I discussed Tor ControlPort filtering in general (what is the threat model any way?) with nickm, and this prompted him to start a discussion on tor-dev@ which I have yet to respond to: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2017-April/012141.html

Cheers!
