Well, I am not very familiar with JMS, however in-general, it would be better for you to try to modify the existing Freenet codebase such that a JMS module could be "plugged in", as an alternate to TCP/IP, rather than reimplementing Freenet, which would put you in the position of playing a never-ending game of catch-up.
