Yes, we took a close look to that lib's code and decided to start from scratch since it would require a total ground refactoring.

Will be different in that:

- test coverage as close as possible to 100%

- much more advanced relay management to allow flexible outbox/gossip model implementation

- persistency interfaces to allow for caching (mem or some sort of DB)

- native channels optimization for verifying signatures since dart's bip340 lib is 10x slower than acinq lib on android and other JS libs on web.

- distribution of donations to contributors according to amount of work done

- long term maintenance and adding support to new NIPs
