It's in the repos now. If anyone wants to try it out, make sure you have 
the Extras-devel repository configured and then just run "apt-get 
install gophernicus" as root (or use the graphical application installer).

http://maemo.org/packages/view/gophernicus/

It should be up and running (with IPv4) right after installation - just 
add your content to /var/gopher/.

Current gopher status on the N900 is that the included MicroB browser 
doesn't support gopher (apparently it's been removed from the compile) 
but the current beta of Mobile Firefox (Fennec) does.
