Do we sack this? There is some IP based stuff available and I am programming
a prococol on layer 3+4 with qos/credits, onion routing and some other things.

GNUNet does not do onion routing. It is "broadcast everywhere and see where we
get responses routing". The source is hidden, because you do not know whether
the data originated at a certain node or was forwarded. But AFAIK, the
destination is not always hidden.
