Hi,
Attached to this message is a completed port for net/go-ethereum;
the official go client for the ethereum [1] protocol.
This port is based on the work by Fabian Raetz, who submitted his
port to the openbsd-wip [2] repository. After contacting him through
email, he relayed he wouldn't have the time to maintain this port, so
I'd like to take this role instead. I've been tracking go-ethereum
development since its inception and expect to continue doing so.
DESCR:
Ethereum is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts,
applications that run exactly as programmed without possibility of
downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference
This port was tested on my -current amd64 machines. I do not have
other architectures available to me at this time.
This application runs as a daemon using the _geth user/group.
I have taken id 842 - the current lowest available id.

Any feedback is appreciated as this is my first openbsd port.
