Actually, a server (probably a separate server from the Freenet server) could load all the metadata files and index them, and respond to queries. I don't think we should bolt on search-engine functionality to Freenet, this might bog things down a bit. There are a lot of problems with this idea, but its just random fluff from my head. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE49hoWpXyM95IyRhURAjfkAJsFNZUv6UlzB8HNvPrewQYQnSD75wCgvfPs DN9/7xEc6QEIXASyJCMv6z4= =yDT+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
