Unfortunately Frost's userbase isn't very well represented on these
lists from what I have seen. Someone should ask this on a Frost board.

Hi,
In my case Fproxy is more important. I never found frost that
effective.

Which of these is more important?
- SSKs -> minimal FCPv2 -> working frost boards, and maybe working
frost
filesharing too. (splitfiles work right now)
- Manifests -> SSKs -> Fproxy (with initially command line site
insert).
- Opennet support.
- Ability to fetch logs from nodes...
Current issues:
1. We need money. Fast.
One way to get this is to get some general enthusiasm amongst the
Freenet userbase. Another is to get some amongst the slashdot crowd.
Either way, we need more people on the network, and we need more
apps.
2. We need more nodes. We need more people on the network.
Problems:
a) To debug properly, I need people to be online when their node
is, so they can send me their logs if I want them. Possible
fix: Make
the node automatically send me logs if I ask for it; minimal
testnet
support. Then we can have all nodes online more or less
permanently.
b) Can just ask for more testers. (Come to #freenet-alphatest on
irc.freenode.net if you want in!)
c) Opennet is a possibility, but we don't want to have opennet
support
before we have shown that the darknet can vaguely work, and
finished
with the datastore format changes. Opennet is much less tested
theoretically than darknet.
3. We need apps.
a) Frost. If I implement SSKs, then a minimal FCP, then Frost should
just about work, once it is rewritten a bit.
b) Fproxy. If I implement SSKs, and manifests, then I can implement
Fproxy, with sites initially being inserted through the command
line
interface.
IMHO it is not yet time for opennet support, as we haven't finished
playing with the datastore...
The current testnet is very small.
