What is the current status?

Devel
The software has just turned Alpha. This means:
- there is something you can actually download, compile and run
- the software is buggy, prone to crashes and incomplete
- documentation is patchy
- testing is patchy
- no effort has been put into: porting, internationalisation or accessibility yet
- think of the architecture being a spike (something written fast to provide a starting point for discussing how to do it right).
Crypto
The protocol has been documented, but so far only received 5 reviews (no flaws found so far).
Gaming
Outreach has not yet started.
