So where am I, with all of this? Obviously at the very least I had the reality check that it takes a long time when it's done right. I can't give an update on how our (infotropique collective) approach differs from the past attempts, I should be able to do so over the course of this semester (financial worries and soon university and other things keep me busy). Some people have joined me since I documented the efforts under a collective name (infotropique), and it also developed beyond just this: - 1. gnunet-fs binary substitutes distribution - 2. gnunet-fs as a a secure data storage (in early design) - 3. reusable blueprint of a system based on GuixSD - 4. exploration of liquidfeedback integration - and more (integration of GNUnet, etc, etc (I'm not a fan of bullet points and good summaries right now)). I had the logical development from "one goal" to "many goals" because of the social and political implications which are attached to the many branches of this project. In spoken word I know how to describe the goals and intentions of infotropique and how it's attached to GNUnet, Guix, etc. Written words are fixed, so I'm still working on the best presentation. So where are we right now? - 1: The December '16 - now has been rough to me, so I'm now assembling from physical papers (bad habbits die hard..) and emails the way forward. At least one person has joined me with explicit wish to work on this. Some work has been done in debugging GNUnet and contributing towards the next release. Guix service needs to be debugged. We will very likely only test against HEAD as having almost 4 years difference and the fixed bugs is just too much to justify support of 0.10.1 with the work on a gnunet service for GuixSD. At least that's my personal opinion, in general the service should have no opinion on the version of GNUnet. - 3: Mostly the base and theory + roadmap/goals is done and it is simply stuck at autotools and documentation right now (which in turn need time). Recently some ideas have been introduced to me which could be solved in Guix. Furthermore one basic idea related to the way of final distribution has to be addressed within Guix once we are at the point where "make dist" produces enough material to justify a release candidate. --=20 ng0 GnuPG: A88C8ADD129828D7EAC02E52E22F9BBFEE348588 GnuPG: https://n0is.noblogs.org/my-keys https://www.infotropique.org https://krosos.org --4ciclinqohmvtpuk Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEqIyK3RKYKNfqwC5S4i+bv+40hYgFAlmsAnsACgkQ4i+bv+40 hYgHXRAAo9kVt8O2a6slKm0CQYq2j2MAYizWWhJsk+aB4FEelgKi+Zb/48m7Fvat iy6hstwOdTEOavH0WuSEJ+u2nJ1s9LWHsmjk4AP1cqaH8ajICLfy5qvCD3NzalvN RLdv4HhNjJY+t+fq9daYFSKsLIbEGvs3oal8RfP1vfwn5Uo6C0i/GAdCVjLfYonJ 9ZReo8AsVU63ReoS6KYZ1H7FTpiIzyOXuXtvccCR2++fcZaITeMVAIDTvbZM7am0 ineLvou+3yUmicKsk/tKSpm8neqRQM9Qpbr6hLCPSq24zg5Aue5jfKseqewC9XIF Vtyt7yhKuiFmRYz8l1iHJ7S6h5fk5mrAlA3Gy7ccObMARCCAciHX1Zl71BMTPhFn og2dG8dNfAjhVTVFeXDLSXp1qtVfkStE0ZV1qxZX0mq/d62O8Loxdk/kXYrDO2Vj khUjLAQG7jeFBUZvpR3x92+fKvfrRtNRafkD+gQdDYm6NQAkQQsSjJh6EGwH1D4i ZLrpdlzZjaTWoVYPtM2+jLSRPR9oys/eeLbRBHLKtFdvXv11rFPSlivvW8UVT7bl RX5AE2Ji7N31PZz/x4eHVsdAq6fFIwTNqR83yr7HndUG7497Igi1jvyEeBrsI65z O6i4xdnJBJmZmPXnm9JPemP+umWINhpx7gg1ni3pqyV0HnXVAHQ= =G10T -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --4ciclinqohmvtpuk--
