[freenet-dev] Please help improve our GSoC project ideas page!

2016-02-18 Thread Arne Babenhauserheide
Hi,

I signed Freenet up for GSoC 2016. Now we need to improve our project
ideas page.

https://wiki.freenetproject.org/Google_Summer_of_Code/2016

Note that the reviewers from Google will start with but a glance. The
site has to be convincing for someone who read 150 applications
before, is on the fifth coffee and already wanted to check just one
further application 5 projects ago.

That doesn’t mean dumbing it down, but rather making it clear,
structured and easy to read. The first paragraphs have to rock, then
the rest has to convince.

Best wishes,
Arne

Hi Arne,
 Per our IRC conversation, my summer availability is a bit up in the
air, but I nonetheless expect to have enough time for the commitment we
discussed. I'm happy to help out the project where I can. I offer to mentor
as well.

Cheers,
Dan

[freenet-dev] Would you mentor for GSoC? Please write today!

2016-02-18 Thread Dan Roberts
Hi everybody,

Arne send out a call for GSoC mentors yesterday, however I found it ended
up in gmail's junk filter, along with several other legitimate messages
from this mailing list. By his request, I've copied the contents of his
email below.

I’m currently doing the application of Freenet for GSoC, and I need to
give a count of mentors.

If you would like to mentor a project for GSoC 2016, please write today,
so I can fill out the application tomorrow.

Best wishes,
Arne

Argh. Yup:

https://github.com/freenet/fred/commit/5d21c855655c1f974a8e9333d74c1d564224bf4c

Please send a patch, and make target final while you're at it. Thanks!

Yikes. That sure sounds like a bug.

This behavior results from the fact that the constructor of the

Matthew likely wrote it, but he's busy at university, so instead of asking
him my impulse would be to check if that behavior is in the initial
AnnounceSender implementation. If it was intentionally removed later there
should be reasoning in the commit message. If - as I'd expect - it's a bug,
it very well may exist in the initial implementation or be introduced by a
refactor.

Thanks,
Steve

[freenet-dev] Problem with handling of Opennet Announce Requests

2016-02-18 Thread Martin Byrenheid
Hi,

while working with Freenet, I discovered that whenever a seed node received an 
OpennetAnnounceRequest-message for a target location X, it forwards the 
request to another opennet peer node, but always for target location 0.0 
instead.  This behavior results from the fact that the constructor of the 
AnnounceSender class (line 55 [1])  does not copy the given target location 
into the "target" member variable. Is this an implementation bug or is there a 
good reason why the original target location should be ignored?

[freenet-dev] Problem with handling of Opennet Announce Requests

2016-02-18 Thread Martin Byrenheid
Hi,

while working with Freenet, I discovered that whenever a seed node received an 
OpennetAnnounceRequest-message for a target location X, it forwards the 
request to another opennet peer node, but always for target location 0.0 
instead.  This behavior results from the fact that the constructor of the 
AnnounceSender class (line 55 [1])  does not copy the given target location 
into the "target" member variable. Is this an implementation bug or is there a 
good reason why the original target location should be ignored?
