I thought we had something like that already. The changes I can think of,
off the top of my head:

- New session protocol with a node PKI with MITM secure key negotiation.
Scott was going to post the specifics on this.

- New procedure for node introduction into the network instead of
inform.php. This will use a ramdom routed query and then a commit/reveal
procedure to establish an initial reference value for new nodes. The
specifics aren't quite worked out yet.

- Integration of an ARK client into the node.

- Changes to some of the application protocol:

 - removal of the depth field. HopsToLive only on requests, and randomly
   decremented.

 - Combining the InsertRequest/DataInsert procedure into a single message
   for speed and DOS security. (A pox on me for splitting it up in the 
   first place.)


I would mark the progress on each point, but that would be depressing...

'DeCSS would be fine. Where is it?'
'Here,' Montag touched his head.
'Ah,' Granger smiled and nodded.
