'lo I know everyone is busy, but I'd just like a minute or two of your time. The response I've had on IIP to the proposal I put up for allowing Freenet to operate over arbitrary network topologies by means of JMS ([EMAIL PROTECTED]/freenetOverJMS/2//) has been very positive, but some people weren't familiar with JMS or MOMs, so I wrote up a brief intro to message oriented middleware (MOM), which is up at [EMAIL PROTECTED]/enterpriseMessaging/1// I'm not asking anyone to change what they're doing or reprioritize their workload in any way, I'm just hoping for some feedback from those of you who know Freenet and Fred way way way better than I do as to whether that proposal is the direction Fred wants to go in. I have no qualms with people saying that no, Fred shouldn't support JMS - I'll just fork off the codebase and rebuild another Freenet node implementation that does. If compelling reasons can be found that JMS/MOMs shouldn't be used for Freenet, so be it (though I'm pretty certain that FNP and FCP, as asynchronous message oriented protocols, are perfectly suited to MOMs, that Freenet must be able to operate over network topologies more complex than simple point to point socket connections, and that Fred would be best served by factoring out that low level message passing layer into a MOM that can deal with the intricacies of the network's topology). Yes, I'm offering to spearhead the Freenet over JMS project. If necessary, I'll fork off Fred and go from there, but if the JMS transport seems like something Fred will want later on, this project could be done over a branch or even by patches to the HEAD. Of course, if you have any advice to share about adding MOM support to Fred, I'd love to discuss it further. Thanks for your time -jrandom
