Okay, we have a new website and some new details announced. https://skel.af/
We're thinking of switching our direction slightly, and we'll be
posting a further update in a month or two.

Sorry, none of this applies to Skeleton. We ship with Emacs and creative
tools. We'll ship with a regular browser.

Hey Bob -- we have a list, not public yet. But I'll add you :) We have
a lot to be done.
