CHKs, SVKs, KSKs and SSKs Could someone point me to a place where I can find information on these things (like what they are)

In my crystal ball I see the future freenet user hitting the button "Save to Freenet As ..." and then just entering a guessable text string with an optional description. In the background, the data is chopped up into little pieces with each chunk saved under a CHK. These pieces are listed in a SVK or as SSKs to provide and updatable layer. The final reference to the SVKor SSK is provided with a KSK to verbally share with friends. All the generated SVKs, SSKs, SSKs and KSK are stored in a bookmark file for future use/updating/purging. On subsequent/refresh request, the client can first check for the KSK. If that is missing, then it goes after the SVK/SSK. If that is missing then it goes after the individual CHKs. If there are not enough of those left then it gives up. If it finds any of the above in their entirety, then the keys above the last valid level are reestablished/reinserted.
