Well, I may be able to partially answer that question: Speaking for the GNUnet side, I personally simply don't think GNUnet is quite ready for GNU Ring at this time.
Specifically, we need to make GNUnet easier to install and particular self-configuring in terms of the network stack (NAT traversal, etc.). For GNU Ring in particular, I've heard people being concerned about battery consumption, so we also need to work on the GNUnet-on-mobile scenario where peers can indicate that they are on a mobile phone and should not be routing traffic for others, least we drain people's batteries (and get terrible network performance on top of it). Once those things are fixed, I would hope the GNU Ring hackers will have time for a chat, and we'll find out if we could benefit from an integration. Until then, I would encourage them to prioritize other issues, even though I would of course like them to use GNUnet eventually. Now, if someone wants to see that happen, I'd very much look forward for people helping out with the issues mentioned in the previous paragraph -- but note that none of them are doable quickly.
