 This fork of the PeachCloud project makes use of the TildeFriends sbot to make a minimal and  functional PeachCloud Scuttlebutt pub,
 that can be easily deployed and operated by a non-technical user.

+for this particular hack, the focus was on getting the project working in a minimal form (aka more hacky),
 with less of a focus on long-term sustainability of the project as an ecosystem. 
 
 This project serves to provide a working simple-to-use pub for a P2P protocol which is in some ways frozen in amber,
