The developers need to decide whether freenet is ready for general use or not
Freenet is a research project, always has been. If people find that its usable, then great, they can help us research how to make it better. If you want something easy to use that works today and claims to protect your anonymity, I suggest you try Earth Station 5, its developers tell us that its just *great*!
They have led a lot of people to have some expectation of usefulness
despite the fact that it is clearly alpha software yet they have a release called "stable".
I have never ever characterized Freenet as being anything other than in development. If you don't like the fact that Freenet is taking so-long to perfect, then either help, or use Earth Station 5 - I hear its great.
I suspect part of the problem is major bugs in implementation compounded by lack of testing and scientific method in diagnosing bugs (ie. running NGR and older stuff). But others disagree. :)
The problem is that it is vastly more ambitious than anything else out there, and it isn't finished yet. Either help, stop griping, or find an alternative, like Earth Station 5 - I hear its great.
Ian.
