IMHO a lot of geeks still use perl, it makes some sense. Did you have a look at 
the existing libraries? I think there is some perl stuff, I dunno if it's 
actually used ...

Yeah, there are some libraries. There is Net::FCP [1], wich is ancient and works with Freenet 0.5, there is also AnyEvent::FCP [2] (Freenet 0.7), the one I mentioned in the previous email and what I found to be pretty messy and undocumented and there is the Net::FCP::Tiny [3], a very basic and tiny module, wich does pretty much nothing but to create a socket and send a message (~60 lines code).

One problem is the last time we had a student for a library, they half-finished 
it and didn't document it, (and then had to withdraw for personal reasons). 
Libraries need to be documented, and easy to use (include a simple demo). I 
don't know whether we need it to be full-featured, as some of the FCP 
functionality is fairly obscure.

I understand. It is my main purpose to create a _well-documented_ and _easy-to-use_ library. That's why I refered to my previous Perl work, so you could see how is coded and documented. Anyway, I'll work in a simple demo to express what I have in mind and post it the next few days.

Thank you for the feedback.
