Hi,

When people talk about streamng do they mean the continous transfer of a
potentially infinitely big document (like a continous radio transmission) or
do they mean the hopefully real time transfer of a finite size document (I
want to play freenet:mp3/some/thing right now and I'm so excited I can't
wait for the download to complete)? With all this stuff about
DataLength=inifinite/-1 etc I assume the first. Presumably the radio station
or whatever is doing some kind of continous insert - how will this monster
document propagate through freenet? Does the node usually wait for a
complete document before updating its datastore? if so it'll wait a long
time... Maybe the document should be split up into manageable chunks and
inserted sequentially in which case it becomes the same as the second sort
of streaming and requires pretty much no extra support from the node.
