       Progress

       Zooko [1] and Icepick [2] merged the newnet and metatrackerrouter
       branches into the head branch. With some debugging help from
       Tschechow [3] the unit tests are again passing. (At least those that
       were passing before the merge.) Progress is being steadily made
       on the Head branch, and its looking like an unstable release is
       imminent.

       Docs

       Artimage [4] spent some time working on the project roadmap [5], it is
       now up to date. In this doc we explain the state of the union, so to
       speak, and where we plan to head from here. Basically, things are
       looking good, but more work is needed, but we say it with a lot more
       detail in the doc.

       Twisted Branch

       I would like to take this space to welcome some twisted people to
       our little world. You know, when you name a project twisted you
       just can't help making tons of puns. Anyway, a few Twisted
       developers have been good enough to drop in and checkout our
       code, we couldn't be more pleased to have some new friends. And
       in a sort of chicken and egg situation, a new branch has been
       created in mnet_new for work on porting to the Twisted [6] framework. 
       (Oddly enough the tag is branch_twisted) So, welcome to our
       twisted branch. (Man, the puns are just too easy.)

       Help wanted

       What would Mnet be without its fun loving group of developers
       wasting countless hours on irc talking about crypto? Well it
       would sort of be like the A-Team without Murdoch, or Scooby
       snacks [7] without the "herbal medicine".

       Would you like to join the global subversive emergent network
       jihad?
