No, there is ALREADY a port of arch. That means that it must be
relatively straightforward, just as email over freenet is relatively
straightforward. If we leave it for a third party to do after 0.7, and
then after 0.8, and then after 0.9, then it will never get done. IMHO
email, IRC and source control over freenet are vital to involve the
anonymous community in the development of Freenet.
