  gNewSense unfortunately only just started work on the lastes (year old) debian stable. I'm hoping the system gets standardised and documented so that more people can help and it can stay a bit more up-to-date.

  For now, Trisquel is pretty good.

  Doesn't prevent sniffing at non-wifi nodes (that is: the whole rest of the Internet) so the traffic (if not end-to-end protected) is still visible to anyone putting in a little effort.

  It does not require OverloadedStrings, that was my whole point. Works fine without any extensions. But yes, sometimes requires parens as you say.
