I'm doing it as a project for my university course so with any luck an abstract prototype will be finished in a few months. After that there'll have to be some more work done to integrate it into freenet, but that shouldn't take much. I'll post updates when it's nearer to completion; meanwhile if anyone wants more details on its design just ask. X
