* scheme-GNUnet: a partial Scheme port of GNUnet
TODO: ask upstream of use of name is acceptable
TODO: more bindings, less duplication
TODO: document directory & meta data format
* things that work
TODO: test suite for download & publish.
TODO (elsewhere): GNUnet service definitions for Guix in container
** DONE publishing store items
(Script: gnu/gnunet/scripts/publish-store.scm)
(Described in ROADMAP.org)
We cheat by calling the gnunet-publish binary.
Use this to publish a directory from the store!
** DONE downloading store items
(Script: gnu/gnunet/scripts/download-store.scm)
(Described in ROADMAP.org)
The inverse of the former, to be implemented.
When implemented, contact guix-devel on how
to proceed. Either creates a directory structure
or a nar.
* Purposes
+ for use by Guix and disarchive
+ bit-for-bit reproducibility in directory creation
* Modules
+ gnu/gnunet/directory.scm: directory construction
+ gnu/gnunet/util/mq.scm and friends: message queues for
network messages, and calling an appropriate handler for
each message type.
+ gnu/gnunet/message/envelope.scm: some program data around
message types (e.g. priority, notify on sent hook)
* Conventions
** Fiddling with options
Options like ‘priority’, ‘anonymity’, ‘replication’
and ‘no-index’ should be ‘passed’ using SRFI-39 parameters,
and not with positional or keyword arguments,
as they are just passed through unchanged most of the time.
* Wishlist
+ Schemification
Many procedures are less-or-more directly transcribed
from the imperative C source code. Less is preferred over
more.
+ Less copying bytevectors around
Bytevectors are often duplicated to preserve safety in presence of
buggy / insecure / hostile code in a sandbox.

E-mail messages should ideally by be signed with PGP (or GnuPG, etc.).
Presuming I'm using the word ‘notoriously’ correctly,
announcements by the maintainer of ‘taking a break’ from
Guix+GNUnet hacking are notoriously unreliable. I suggest
you disregard them (but note that sometimes these are
actually true).
