[retronet] Looking for a Raspberry Pi owner to help with bleeding edge testing.

[Cornelius Keck]

Well, not really... so far one can dumb this down to either a somewhat 
easy to follow procedure, or (one step further) a tarball containing a 
known-to-compile Wireguard release plus a shell script for preparation 
and setup.

Next thing to do is to set up certificates for both local and remote 
side. These are peer-to-peer, means one needs one pair per retro-net 
link. There is a procedure for that, too. It's on my list of stuff to 
tinker with.
