Me neither.
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,
