Redox is mentioned. There are other projects but afaik they've stalled. The first few hits with google contain links to their project pages.
No need for snark.
This question "Is there currently ..." comes off as lazy.
Again, all of this is in contrast to you just going about your day because you have nothing positive or constructive to contribute. Wreaks of miserable, frankly.
You call it "your own question" but it's the question we receive, you receive answers. Complaining about answers people give you for free is, well, there's a saying "beggars cant be choosers". You failing to see how I try to help you get more responses, instead you call me miserable. Auch.
