[freenet-devl] First freenet map

Here's a crude little map of 20 Freenet nodes that I just did up using the GraphViz Perl module. All inserts were done with a htl of 5 The average request htl is shown on the edges between nodes. The map needs more nodes in it obviously, only a few had any connections at all to other nodes and

[freenet-devl] Freenet Mapper

I just got a half-decent image out of my mapper. I've been running it for the past 24 hours or so. I'm still not done on the mapping, still have another 8000 connections (out of 13000) to go but it should give you some idea of what it can do. In any case I'm redoing the archetecture to make it

Are there any peices of software, perferable a independent project, (IE not, say, implementing a new data store) needed for Freenet right now? I need to do a big project (10k lines code or so) for my computer science course and am looking for something to do. I was thinking of writing a stripped

Just a note... I really am working on that Freenet Mapping program. I'm currently implementing basic functions that the mapping will build on, threading functions, disk-io etc. I don't think the whole thing is going to work in the end though. The n^2 cost of a full map and the heisenburg

Does the datasource field come before or after the data in a StoreData message? From what I can see in the libfreenet code it comes before but I just want to be sure. -- Need some Linux help or custom C(++) programming? Drop me a line and I'll see what I can do. Resume at
