[Freedombox-discuss] Would like to contribute (code)

[Rick C. Hodgin]

Luka,

The videos of Eben on YouTube are most inspiring.  He speaks about
Freedombox in such a way that we want to be involved. :-)

So are you saying that it's not moving forward now?  No active software
efforts, or that development has at least stalled?
