How about a DHCP server implementation? We already have a DHCP client:

https://github.com/mirage/mirage-tcpip/tree/master/dhcp

A DHCP server would be handy if we want to do fancy network stuff in future 
e.g. for some kind of DHCP + NAT + VPN appliance.

I’m sure other people have other suggestions too!

Cheers,
Dave
