@Hackdom I'd like to contribute to this
Hey @samparsky , just seeing this... I was just doing a random check up and this caught me by surprise. I should find some time in the next couple of weeks and then maybe we can have a discussion to get on the same page?
@Hackdom Yes definitely, is there a discord or slack channel for ethpm?
yeah, the gitter is pretty active... hold on

I haven't been focused on this since Devcon just b/c of company product dev, but I'll set some time aside for this in a few. Feel free to dig, my responses may just be sketchy in the near term.
What is it?
Add network utility functions to retrieve and post package manifests.
Problem
There are currently no functions that enable the tool to make calls to various networks for posting or retrieving package manifests.
Solution
Network utilities should be added to: post and retrieve manifest information to/from ethereum networks via JSON-RPC and JSON-HTTP, and post/retrieve manifests to/from ipfs via HTTP, and retrieve from github via JSON-HTTP.
