[Freedombox-discuss] Quick report from GETD

[Markus Sabadello]

We used Henry's server: https://github.com/read-write-web/rww-play

It seems a bit heavy for a little box and could probably be optimized a
bit, but in general it worked very well for us.
I am interested in trying GOLD as well! They should be compatible, right..
