our plan with the bibliography collection of GNUnet is to

implement something similar to your/freehaven's anonbib.

See also the censorbib, for another example.

It's not entirely clear what we ought to do with anonbib. At the beginning, there was no google scholar, so it really was the place to go to find out about papers in the anonymous communications area. And also, back then, there were only 10 or 15 papers and you could feasibly read all of them.
Yes there are lots of papers all over the net, and in massive collections like arxiv, SSRN, etc... but few places collected and curated by community of relavance here. One could envision a large community curation database bibliography of papers and multimedia presentations. With tagging and export system, including perhaps json / HTML, pick and choose your fields, for those papers that each official project tags as references or relavant to their interests. Click 'Tor', get Tor's... click 'Briar', get Briar's... etc and in addition to the obvious function of global search and browse everything in the databse by various sorting / filters / rankings that the reader chooses. With open submission by anyone (ie: as yet non project submitted / tagged bibinfos), of new entries into a 'potentially relavant to community' subpool, such that they might eventually be tagged by projects and readers as desired. Saves a lot of duplicative work at the projects, is easily mirrored, imported into web pages, etc.
Now I think anonbib needs to be something other than "all of the papers about the topic". One way forward would be to cull it even more, so it becomes more of a recommended reading list.
