I am not sure I understand the logic here. In truth, Freenet should be able to get going using sensible defaults even if there isn't a freenet.conf file at all. Once it is up and running, a config servlet could be used to create/modify settings. This would have the advantage of automatically synchronizing the configurator with new options as they appear. > Ian once said something about cross platform java based installers... if > we could just distribute the JAR, and have running the jar bring up > either a text mode config or a GUI configurator? I think an .exe is probably better, since it is what people expect on Windows.
