I don't really feel part of this conversation, but since you keep CC'ing

This is not accesible from behind restrictive proxies and networks like
tor, so I have to pass on this.
 
I did the initial packaging of PyBitmessage on GuixSD but there is no
maintainer per package, whoever wants to update can update it.

Since all my questions, improvements, and attempts to contribute have
been blocked and/or forgotten by the PyBitmessage project I don't want
to have this discussion in my inbox longer than necessary.

LibreSSL support is at least one improvement I welcome.
Any news on the use of setuptools, and the move to PyQt5?
