I think we're considering "censorship resistant publishing" differently. You seem to be referring to a state where there exists some technology which it's possible for some to use for the purpose of censorship resistant publishing. I'm referring to a state where censorship resistant publishing is widespread or even the norm for the majority of Internet users. In my sense, published protocols are definitely required. You can't engineer systems like the Internet without properly published technical information and multiple implementations of protocols. Freenet may provide some relevant technology but the project is not progressing toward publishing a protocol and moreover, from what I understand there is no strategy on how it will get to the point of publishing a protocol. > 2. invalid assumption and contradicting goal: publishing a protocol > makes it more robust. I disagree, that assumption is not implied by my wording. A protocol can be published and be weak. My wording has not implied otherwise. My wording does assume that robustness of the protocol is a goal of the project. > 3. incorrect assumption: Freenet is not robust. Again, I disagree; that assumption is not implied by my wording. > 4. incorrect assumption: There is no clear strategy about the > documentation of the protocol. > > The current clear strategy includes Are you saying there is now a strategy for publishing documentation on the protocol? Has the situation changed since I asked on IRC and found an absence of such a strategy? If the situation has changed, can you provide me with a reference to the strategy? _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl@freenetproject.org https://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
