noffle end-of-week

Summary: some go-ipfs + js-ipfs development, and ipget planning. ipfs-hyperlog gives us access to the hyper* ecosystem, which has modules to let ipfs app developers build things like kv-stores and event logs that work in node+browser. This could help in quickly getting pubsub off the ground, too.
