Hi, Randolph has good intentions, although his approaches require refinement. I've asked him several times to discontinue promoting Dooble to the Tor community. I'm responsible for Dooble, but I can't control its existence beyond Sourceforge. The official site for Dooble and its Wiki entry (as of right now) do not mention Tor.
As for leaking IP information, we work with a framework (Qt) that has issues and limitations. Every release of Dooble includes detailed information covering all of the fixes and improvements. Thanks.
