Ah, I see. The web archives are optional, BTW, and list subscribers will
run the daemon to put the latest messages right in their mailbox. Anyway,
if not EOF then what? Bad put freenetmirror in its own fucking module in
the Freenet CVS, but that seems so haphazard. Freenet/contrib is tempting
but Oskar doesn't like downloading stuff there. Maybe the Contrib module
that contains the windows installer would be a good place? Ah well.
I'm curious what protocols are being considered for EOF. A NNTP servlet
that automatically downloads the latest messages for your subscribed
groups would be one, but insertion over Freenet will never survive the
flooding, at least with the present keytypes. Freenetmail is interesting
but flooding will be a problem, and right now it doesn't automatically run
as a daemon that checks for new messages every x seconds. Invoking it
manually is annoying.
I like centrally-inserted moderated things like mailing lists and
newsfeeds (from real news servers) because they're practical and resistant
to attack. But I admit they're not as sexy as completely in-Freenet
systems.

Arggghhhh. Tomorrow maybe.
