Hence my amazement that it works. But...if they're using the same protocol, then where's the incompatibility? As far as I can tell, both the latest stable and unstable are perfectly compatible with each other. We really might even wish to consider just going ahead and enabling the dual-network mode by default in versions 510x and 6026x. I think this could be a real boon to the currently existing network(s). Of course, 0.7 is bound to bring some radical changes, where we'd want to disable this feature again, but for now, it might be nice to build it into the downloadable packages, so everyone could benefit from it. -- Conrad J.

I would *hope* that people involved enough in freenet to undertake running a dual-network node would be subscribed to at least one or two of these lists, but it's impossible, of course, to know for sure if they are, or to which ones, so I just used the "spray paint" approach. :-) The update itself doesn't really warrant a new build number, IMHO (or maybe it does; I don't know). At any rate, for the "average" stable user, the update is completely irrelevant and can be safely ignored; it's really only the "elite" group of dual-network node users that needed to be informed, and I just wanted to cover all the bases in one fell swoop. The reason I felt it was so important was that, prior to this update, the dual-network functionality was, in effect, pretty badly broken (at least from the stable side), so I felt there was a certain urgency in getting the word out. I also feel very strongly that the dual-network nodes serve a very vital function, bridging the two otherwise completely separate networks and helping to propagate data between the two, thereby helping to enrich freenet's content for everyone. I hope I've cleared up any possible misunderstandings now. :-) -- Conrad J.

Well, the dual-network capability is not enabled by default in the source code, and has never been enabled in precompiled packages, so anyone wanting to use it would still have to get the sources, uncomment the two relevant lines in Version.java, and build a new freenet.jar for themselves. In other words, it's still pretty much of an "elite" feature, and will most likely remain so. -- Conrad J.

[freenet-chat] Important news for users of stable dual-network nodes -- Please read!
Please excuse the crossposting, but I felt this was important enough to make sure it was seen by those who may not be subscribed to this or that list. The following will be appearing later today in DFI's News section: Feb 25, 2005: Finally got around to committing to CVS an overlooked update to the stable version of src/freenet/Version.java. I had updated the unstable version of this file several weeks ago (see Jan 20, 2005 below), but forgot to sync up the one in stable. As a result, there was a mismatch between the protocol version stable was expecting unstable nodes to be using, and the one unstable nodes actually were using. Those of you running dual-network nodes should start seeing better results now, as more and more stable users update their nodes to include this latest update.

I'm going to have to give this idea more thought before I decide on anything. I would like to include at least *some* activelinks, but then if it comes down to actually picking and choosing which sites' images to include, we begin to venture into the thorny thicket of editorializing or even outright censorship, which is not something I really care to get into at all. Yes, there are some sites I would just as soon not even exist, but I feel a certain responsibility not to allow my personal feelings to influence the content of DFI, being that its sole "raison d'être", as I see it, is to provide as complete and up-to-date an index to freenet's content as possible. It's not my place to "protect" people from questionable or potentially offensive content, or even to warn them; it should be everyone's right to choose for themselves what they care to explore, and to do so without the burden of someone else's value judgements weighing on their minds. In fact, I feel so strongly about this that if I were forced to start weeding out the objectionable content, or even to merely place warnings or other editorial commentary, I would just as soon no longer maintain an index site at all, period. The spider and it resulting index, in its current mode of operation, is as unbiased and impartial as it can possibly be, neither condemning nor recommending any particular material it provides links to. I believe this is as it should be. Also, from a legal perspective, I do think it's safer to allow the spider to simply do its thing and find what it will, and to auto-generate the index with no intervention on my part, for exactly the same reason many Usenet news service providers choose to follow a "hands off" policy regarding the content of their servers. Once you adopt a policy of "filtering on content", you abandon all semblance of plausible deniability and do, in effect, assume responsibility for *knowing* about any questionable material you may be providing. At that point, you may as well just hang it up, as it is simply not humanly possible to ensure that no objectionable or illegal content can possibly "leak" out from your server or site or whatever. IANAL, and I could be mistaken on some of the finer points relating to the above, but I am reasonably certain that, should I ever find myself in the position of having to defend myself in the legal arena, I would fare much better as the operator of a completely uncensored index site than if I were actively engaged in "editing for content". Let's just hope I never need to find out, or at least that, if I do, I don't discover too late that I was dreadfully, horribly wrong. :-) -- Conrad J.

Yes, but, one of the things that I find annoying about YoYo, and about the new "Hopeless" and "Oscar" index sites, is the lag involved in loading a given category. You may bring up the main page just fine, only to find that you're suddenly faced with an interminable wait for a category's sub-page to load. > One other suggestion: Would it be hard to run it dual-format?

I really like the idea of just letting the information flow, regardless of content. I'd hate to get into making value judgements re: which sites merit more propagation than others and whatnot. If people didn't like the notion of helping to propagate certain sites, they would then have to decide what was more important to them: having full access to and use of this index site, or sacrificing some utility and convenience for the sake of maintaining their moral position as intact as possible. Actually, the idea of putting (some) people in the position of having to choose along such lines does have its charms, I must say. :-) But that's just me, of course.

[freenet-chat] DFI: Proposal to add activelink images -- feedback wanted
I just added the following to the "News" section on DFI today, but thought I'd also go ahead and post it here, too, in the hope of generating more feedback: Feb 13, 2005: Calling all freeneters! Your feedback is needed! I'm currently in the process of doing some fairly extensive revisions to the spider used to generate both DFI's database of site links as well as the actual HTML code for the site itself. Perhaps the biggest and most important idea under consideration (which I'm leaning rather strongly in favor of, myself) is the addition of support for activelink images. I'd like to know how you would feel about such a change, and I'll explain my own views on the matter right here, right now. The payoff, it seems to me, would be quite substantial, and the drawbacks, if any, quite minimal in comparison. For a trivial amount of additional code in the spider itself, and in the HTML code for DFI, we would be reaping some fairly significant benefits. Not only would the images lend a great deal more visual appeal to DFI (something it is sorely lacking in at present), but more importantly, they would also assist in the propagation of each site's metadata (which is what activelinks were originally designed to do, by the way, in case you didn't already know), thus helping to improve "the freenet experience" for everyone. Your node would be fetching and saving sites' metadata in your local datastore for future reference, while also improving its routing capabilities in the process, a big win for everybody no matter how you look at it. The only real drawbacks, as far as I can see, would be a slight increase in the size of the HTML code (pretty much a moot issue, as DFI's index.html is compressed and stored in a zipped container file anyway) and longer time for the entire index page to render completely (due to the fact that your browser would actually be fetching the images in realtime each time you load DFI). Bear in mind that we're only talking about adding a line or two of HTML code that references an image, not embedding the actual image itself in the page, so it's not like we'd be adding a whole lot of additional data per site. Also, the presence or absence of a given site's image would serve as a pretty good realtime indicator of the likelihood of it being successfully retrieved (a concept you're no doubt already familiar with from using The Freedom Engine). In addition, you would still be able to browse through the index, reading sites' info, right-clicking on links to open them in a separate tab or window, etc., while any remaining images were still being fetched, so the overall usability of the index would not be impaired in any way by this. The main body of the index would still be rendered as quickly as possible by your browser, while the activelink images would be fetched and rendered asynchronously. Your thoughts on this idea would be greatly appreciated. Please use the feedback link on the DFI navigator to send me your opinion.

[freenet-chat] jdk 1.5 at last! Yay!
Just finished building and installing the Sun Java 1.5.0 kit on my Athlon (32-bit) box. Finally catching up with the rest of you folks. :-) Unfortunately, we're still seeing some build problems for amd64 under FreeBSD. :-( But the problems have been reported and are being worked on. Shouldn't be long before I have a full 64-bit Java up and running. I can hardly wait! Too early to tell what sort of difference this new version will make, but nonetheless, I'm very happy to finally be up to date. Somebody congratulate me. :-) -- Conrad J.
