I can install Gales for a try and make a write-up, though the expected delivery date for this is after 20.12.2019, and I can't promise any specific date yet. Thank you!

Yes, I agree with the plan. I can install Gales for a try and make a write-up, though the expected delivery date for this is after 20.12.2019, and I can't promise any specific date yet.

As MP previously noted:

> Ripping out kernel RNG

This however is a major priority ; especially because it can turn the currently worked-upon cuntoo from a flavour project some group stylistically flavours to a must-have item with no possible competition in the professional (as opposed to toy&smartphone) IT space.

Cheers to that.

As for future directions, I indeed have no further plans of larger scope so far:
