Hey,
I might not be in the loop, but I don't think anything's happening 
except creation and adaptation of packets. I think people are expecting 
a web-based graphical user interface though: They were at first anyway, 
but there are no group efforts to this end that I'm aware of.
It now seems FreedomBox will be a glorified custom Debian setup. Whether 
that's a good or a bad thing is a matter of opinion. But a WUI that 
unifies different components will, I reckon, always be welcome 
(alternatively, existing admin tools will be used).
Some stuff has no web front-ends of their own though, so as an idea, a 
web front-end for apps such as GPG is a good start.

Others, what do you say?
