The reason I don't like this is because it means that in order to have a trailing field, you must know its length. Sure, it's good to know the length. It's sensible to drop messages without a length because they may be attempts to flood by making the trailing field the entire contents of /dev/null. However, we don't necessary ALWAYS want to require this. If we had streaming data, for instance, like teleconferencing, the length of the data is unknown. So while for some messages we should require a data length, I don't think we should require it for all messages. _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
