Boy would this ever be useful. What I really want, though, is a Freenet Visualizer where participating nodes could send their real, actual statistics to something which looks just like the simulator. That way we can test ideas and also find problems in a real, actual network being used by real people for real purposes. I would be utterly thrilled if you were to break up the simulator into a visualizer and then a timestep module for generating data to visualize. Then I could put together an interface between the node and the vizualizer. I was working on a project like this before, but I don't have your mad GUI skills. _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
