Using a decay algorithm discussed many months back, a new node would start out with probability 1 that it will reset the datasource, them throttle back by 60% each time, until it reaches the global constant of 1/30 chance. > This would mean that there is a 2% chance your node will be 'discovered' if > you make a request so all you need to do to get incorperated into freenet is > make enough requests. Its probably just as okay to have the node simply add empty datastore references for new nodes it contacts. No need to mess with the routing in such a weird way. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
