That's a good idea. More generally, it might be useful to have "Freenet Bulletin" or "Freenet Announce" available from the Web Interface. Simple enough would be to make anything posted to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be inserted. The node could retrieve bulletins in the background and post them to the bulletin page, kind of like a log. Freenet users then wouldn't have to connect to freenetproject, protecting anonymity, and could even disable this, were they to have some reason to. Surely upgrade announcements and security/performance notices are important enough to beam out to every freenet user? -todd _______________________________________________ devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
