I found the most success with https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks/tree/master . It was a while back though.

With ssh, restarting the connection would help for whatever reason. So I had a little script rotating a set of connection behind haproxy.

EDIT: oh and Hong Kong. HK VPSes seemed to work the best.

Does anyone know the story behind:

https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks

"Removed according to regulations." vs:

https://github.com/shadowsocks/shadowsocks/tree/master

Is it the shadowsocks project dancing around github censorship, or github allowing ss to dance around chinese censorship?

TLDR: Police asked the developer to stop working on it. (and judging by their Twitter activity, no crazy stuff happened)

Right, but the code is still there, still being developed, just on the master branch? That doesn't really square with "stopped working on it" - unless it's just a sham to dodge the police - but that sounds pretty dangerous? (As opposed to, say have someone else host it, host it in a new place etc).
