Hi Ben,

Congrats on the move to sourcehut!

I've been sidetracked with work from continuing the jquery porting but I hope 
to start again soon.

My next step is to get set up and running with mediagoblin in a guix 
environment and start testing the js properly. 

I hope to find time again soon once things clear up for me.

Hello Matt,

If you'd like to help with this endeavour it would be great to setup a divide 
and conquer strategy if you  have the time. 

Essentially, we're trying to remove the dependency of jquery in mediagoblin and 
port over those bits to vanilla js so that we don't have to package jquery 
itself for guix.

Packaging jquery in a reproducible way in guix would be a nightmare at the 
moment until we figure out the "javascript dystopian novella" as cwebber calls 
it.

Let me know if you're interested and we can set up a time to meet to discuss 
the task more.

all best,

jgart
