Description Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2016-07-26 16:11:11 UTC
As per $URL:
"gogoNET has closed down [...] The Freenet6 service will also stop accepting new users and it is unknown how long it will continue to operate for existing users."

Old site is already down and original SRC_URI is unfetchable

The software isn't bound to the service!
I've been already using gogoc with a different broker than gogoNET for months!

Yes, it is a TSP client, but still aimed at freenet6 connections, and no upstream updates since 2010 (and no website for it, as it was removed at the same time).

Without a new home to integrate compilation and security patches, fix configuration and documentation, update the template scripts, maybe even make a nice build system, … sadly I do not have the time personally to keep it in decent enough condition in Gentoo (especially as I have not used it for years now).

But who knows, maybe this closure will cause a new/updated TSP client to appear (from a quick Internet search, other TSP clients are as abandoned as gogoc6)
