I?ve got it running on a raspberry pi 4 as HECnet node 29.1 with point to point multinet
links to the outside world, TAP interface to the mixed real/in memory Ethernet and a
bridge interface to a SIMH 3.9+blinken instance behind a PiDP11.
It?s a great piece of work Paul has done and I?m extremely grateful he?s made it
available.

Blackfin (Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS), if I can get it running, will also be
called INKY::
And if I get it working, Bigeye (Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS) will be BLINKY::

Very briefly, it's a DECnet implementation implemented entirely in Python 3,
the full stack (including some applications). Phase IV, but unlike others
it will talk to Phase II nodes. For that matter, it can be run as a Phase
III or Phase II node if you like.
There currently isn't a formal kit; you can install it from the Subversion
working directory, or run it directly in there if you like. See doc/*.txt
for details.
