It's an admirable initiative, but I'm pretty sure that at this point sta.li has been in the "design phase" for years. It's vaporware. I'd love to be proven wrong, though.
the maintainer was busy with work for quite a while, so it might pick up now he's not. i don't care too much myself though, linux has become little more than a web browser platform for me, and i'm sure sta.li would struggle to provide that.
