Combine this with node handshaking passing their protocol versions back and forth and you have a freenet node that can get equal-protocol-speaking nodes from inform.php and can choose not to talk to other nodes that don't speak a compatible language. That would make it so that any number of parallel freenets could be running without entangling one another. I have been stuck running 0.2 due to compilation errors and lack of other nodes to talk to and would like to run a little more up to date node to help provide a more realistic debugging environment for developers. This might prove useful for that. mike _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
