Not true, if it's for one specific task and no more. Thats what Mark is
doing here. His inform server works just like the inform.php system in the
current Freenet. Mark's not designing this network for anonymity in mind,
just simplicity.
After all, Napster has a central server. So does MojoNation, IIRC.
When I was first talking to Mark about it on IRC, I was hoping it could be
used as a replacement for Windows networking or NFS or whatever else is used
for file sharing. Mark thought that was boaring, but it would have helped me
out a lot at my last job.
