I just set up the first stab at an automatic way to get test builds of our
apps based on FDroid.  Testing is an extremely valuable contribution to the
process of making good software, so we want to make that process as easy and
private as possible.  The combination of FDroid an this feed will make it very
easy to upgrade to the latest builds from our build server right as they are
produced.

To use our new test build service, first install FDroid by downloading it from
the official source:
https://f-droid.org

* https://dev.guardianproject.info/fdroid/repo

You can also use our test repo via an anonymized connection using the Tor
Hidden Service (as of this moment, that means downloading an official FDroid
v0.69 test build:

* https://f-droid.org/repo/org.fdroid.fdroid_690.apk

Then here is the repo URL:

* http://k6e4p7yji2rioxbm.onion/fdroid/repo

There is more detail and QRCodes for easy setup here:
