I'm seriously starting to doubt if Freenet actually wants help from anyone. You started this discussion with a request for better/native installers and I offer to give it a try for Windows. toad says it's a good idea, but stuff done differently from the current installer needs to be discussed first. As soon as the discussions start, nextgens puts down veto. So I'm feeling quite stuck in the middle here. On one hand, you and toad encourage my contribution, and on the other nextgens tries to prevent it from happening. If you actually want people to volunteer, may I kindly suggest that you guys agree internally on how Freenet is supposed to move forward first? To be honest, I'm kind of wondering if it is actually worth spending my time on contributing anything to Freenet at all. It certainly hasn't been a pleasant experience so far. I hope that I'm the sad once-in-a-lifetime case for this project... - Zero3 _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl@freenetproject.org http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
