Early this week, I've covered Freenet 0.7 on a seminar on P2P technologies I'm leading at my University. Several students had installed it to try it out, and so far I got three reports, all sounding like "OMG IT MADE SOMETHING TO MY FIREFOX PLEASE HELP". Mind you, they're studying at the department of computer science in one of our best Universities for 3+ years, at least one of them runs Linux on his laptop, so all in all they're quite above the average level when it comes to using a computer. However, it seems that change to Firefox behavior wasn't something they were expecting or were able to quickly remediate. I personally hadn't had this problem, since I was following mailing lists and knew what to expect - but still was scared a little when I saw Freenet skin for FF for the first time :-). I'm not pushing for any immediate changes, but perhaps being more user-friendly regarding the custom FF profile is something to consider for 0.7.1? On a somewhat related note, I also got several reports that Freenet works very well. Interestingly, many students have discovered and began using FMS, but no one had mentioned Frost so far. Some have also found Thaw and told me that "it's not working", I know that Thaw's not without its share of bugs, but it *did* work for me when I was trying it out. Could it be DoSed now just as Frost is?
