Jookia send me a package definition to work on, I already have some work from back on gentoo to look at, so it's just a matter of finding time now. I might get it done any time between tomorrow and after/during the weekend at logan CIJ symposium, working on that gnunet change. >From the looks of gnunet bugtracker, there are 4 open bugs I think which are essential for cg to push for a new tarball release. But, gnunet is a large mountain of code and I prefer the smaller mountains of code and discussion I am involved in somewhere inside the mountain. If someone is capable of fixing gnunet bugs, https://gnunet.org/bugs/roadmap_page.php is the place to go. thanks, -- ng irc://loupsycedyglgamf.onion:67/~NiAsterisk https://psyced.org:34443/NiAsterisk/ EDN: https://wiki.c3d2.de/Echt_Dezentrales_Netz/en
