Yeah, it's really early, on the road map, but we spent 6 months just doing trial-and-error on the basic data structure and backend (including relays), and tightening performance enough to make it usable enough to demo.

Will take at least 2 more years, and four minor versions (Gutenberg, Euler, Defoe, #Biblestr), to get to v1.0. And we're developing our own Nostr SDK (in C++), and working with the relay devs on the side, and we have all the infrastructure and DevOps to support this, which is its own subproject and is being successively Nostr-ized.

It's actually sort of amazing because we're a bunch of volunteers doing this in parallel to our day jobs and subsisting entirely off of crowdfunding, tips, and relay subscriptions. 😅

Whole thing is sort of insane and the grant funds have just been like no way go away, but we've kept right on grinding for over a year, and we keep gaining steam and adding members, because it's just an inspiring project that is worth building, for its own sake.
