Long-time lurker, first-time poster.
I've been lurking around the freenet project for a long time, and I'd love to
contribute something. An implementation of Freenet (or, at least, the node
part) in ANSI C is something I've thought would be interesting for quite some
time. However, to make this work, there would have to be some sort of frozen
interface on inter-node communications... but if there is such an interface
defined, I can't find any documentation on it. I can find the FCP docs
(http://freenet.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=fcp) of course, but that doesn't
cover how nodes talk to other nodes... and I'm afraid of spending *too* much
time reverse engineering a protocol that's going to change out from under me
before I can get it working. How stable is this interface? If I take the
first steps toward a working C implementation of the freenet node (that is,
documenting the inter-node protocol), is it likely to be a waste of time?

Any FNP documentation will be better than what we have now(the java
source code of the node).
