I've run Synchronet for (omygod!) 22 years now, and I've been tempted by
Mystic. I like the feel of it, the ability to run other message formats,
and I'd rather dabble in Python than Javascript.

The Synchronet dev community has done some interesting things over the
years, and bugs get fixed quickly. An open source Mystic worked on by a
group alongside Synchronet would be a great thing indeed. I think you'd
see a lot of ideas bouncing back and forth between teams.
