Yes, I'm only temporarily not available for hire as I've decided to instead 
work for free for some months, see [1].
Once this is finished I will possibly be available for hire again if our work 
atmosphere continues to improve as it already has :)

I've been pushing code for my chosen task almost every day for some months and 
the more complex half of it is close to being finished.
I'd say it may take ~2 more months for the rest - though please be aware that 
I'm bad at time estimates.

So if FPI doesn't hire someone with a permanent contract but instead merely 
offers temporary bounty-like tasks the advantage may be that after I'm 
finished with my volunteering FPI could hire me again to reap the benefit of 
my lengthy experience with Freenet.

If I'm not hired again I will nevertheless continue to volunteer, just with 
less hours than as an employee, so feel as free as possible in your decision 
:)

Greetings,

During the poll I had decided to revoke my votes for the WoT task I had 
considered the most important and to instead implement it for free as a 
volunteer.
I did this to disprove suspicions about whether my primary interest with my 
votes and suggestion to cancel the poll was money.

The chosen piece of work is:
