That's far from the only danger... If we make "building freenet" depend on "running freenet" to "download freenet over freenet", I'd like someone to explain to me how it can work without trusting someone else's binaries. ... As for using Tor, sure we could. We could also recompile the JVM and reinvent a source-only distro... I'm sure we need more scope creep; The project's goals are simple enough that we can afford it. Florent PS: My take on it is that we should document what the build process does... and if people are not happy with it they can run it in a throwaway Tails instance. _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl@freenetproject.org https://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
