Status: U To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Zooko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [mnet-devel] status of Mnet Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List-Help: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List-Post: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List-Subscribe: <https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mnet-devel>, <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> List-Id: <mnet-devel.lists.sourceforge.net> List-Archive: <http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=mnet-devel> Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2003 09:18:59 -0400 There are very few servers on the Mnet network now, so almost all content is probably unavailable. This is mostly due to Tschechow taking his large and highly reliable servers off-line, which he has done, I infer, because he can't afford the time and money to operate them right now. Likewise, the development of the Mnet software is going through a quiet period -- the major developers have each been doing something else for the last few weeks. (I suspect that the commercial HiveCache operation by Jim McCoy and Rob Kinninmont, is still doing active development on something Mnet-related.) Personally I intend to resume work on ent [1] after the current visit from my family ends. If the network is still quiescent, which it will be unless a bunch of people start operating reliable servers, then I'll feel free to ignore the backwards- compatibility issue even more than I am currently ignoring it. :-) So probably when Mnet v0.7, using ent instead of MetaTracker, is ready to roll, it will be a whole new network, unconnected to the Mnet v0.6 network. --Z [1] http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/mnet/mnet_new/mnetlib/ent.py?rev=1.1.2.36&only_with_tag=newnet&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: eBay Great deals on office technology -- on eBay now!
