To me FreedomBox is *not* packaging new cool stuff, but framing stuff 
already prepared. I do feel that netsukuku looks promising.  But not 
more important to me to work on than working on FreedomBox itself.

I am involved in 150+ packages already.  Trying hard to find *other* 
ways to encourage more great code to be packaged for Debian than 
engaging in the packaging myself.  So no, I won't help you directly.  
But will be more than happy to help guide you in the right direction, in 
ways that others can follow too.

Great.  Then please elaborate - what do you mean with "What's in the 
name?"
