Would the owners of soros.ca and freenet.teitel.net please mail me to
the effect that either:
a) They will be running the node on unstable for the foreseeable future.
or
b) They will be running it on stable.

We also urgently need reliable permanent stable branch nodes to read
seednodes from. We currently have a stable noderef file full of unstable
nodes, consequently we are not gaining any new users because stable
won't talk to unstable! I have started my stable node, but I don't like
the seednodes relying on my nodes for several reasons:
1. I like to turn off the stable node to speed up the unstable node.
2. I like to turn off the stable node for gaming.
3. I like to turn off both nodes for debugging major changes such as
muxing.
4. The project doesn't pay me enough to throw more hardware at this.

Bottom line: we need more nodes on both stable and unstable branches to
serve as seednode sources. All you need to do is either
a) Grant access from dodo.freenetproject.org (use the IP,
212.13.198.248), to your web interface (the implications are obvious :(
) OR
b) Run a cron job to download http://<local web
interface>/servlet/nodestatus/noderefs.txt?minConnections=1 to a file,
and upload that file to somewhere we can wget it from, OR
c) Run a cron job to download it and mail it to us. This would require
additional work.

CONDITION: You should not switch your node from one branch to another
without prior warning by email to me, once you are in the seednodes.
