Subject: [PATCH www] todo.html: refresh
Date: Fri, 20 Aug 2021 12:27:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210820122731.245817-1-hi@alyssa.is> (raw)

The old tasks listed here aren't really relevant any more.  But I
would love me a static veritysetup -- it would massively reduce
initramfs size.
