Freenet in Whonix

Hi. Whonix [0] dev here.

We are looking for a censorship-resistant and decentralized way to 
communicate notifications about critical situations [1] to our users and 
host the project metadata and files themselves to resist a Permanent 
Takedown Attack threat.[2] Freenet meets our needs perfectly but 
unfortunately as documented it cannot work over Tor. If this changes in 
the short term we will be able to ship it in our distro to a userbase of 
15K users by conservative estimates.

Other points:

* pyFreenet is very convenient in communicating with Freenet with 
scripts. Is there a similar mechanism that we can use to customize node 
settings?

* Before including pyFreenet we would need it to be signed by its 
respective dev so we can validate it before running anything of course.

* We would prefer if you run a package repo so we can easily pull your 
software for Whonix image builds.


[0] Whonix is an anonymous Debian based OS (whonix.org)

[1] Apt CVE-2016-1252: During apt-get upgrading signature verification 
can be
tricked resulting in arbitrary package installation, system compromise. 
We would have liked a way to notify users to avoid running apt entirely 
and instead the necessary manual steps to download/verify the patched 
binaries.
