Sure, feel free to dump suggestions at anytime, the sourcecode is also 
in Freenet CVS which can be retreived even via anonymous cvs. So feel 
free to offer code patches to this list or to me directly.

That is not applicable IMHO, as a) there is an initial freenet.ini 
created by a java script with the current defaults before calling 
NodeConfig, so there *is* a freenet.ini when calling it. b)it is also 
called when you want to modify your existing preferences and c) you 
might want to change settings even when you update your existing node.

The Java stuff does not need to be updated, as it is mostly working in 
the background (for Win at least). The Win utils can be updated quite 
easily. We just have to move all the hardcoded strings into a string 
table and be loaded from there, so that just the resource file has to be 
updated. The task would me merely to go through the .rc file and 
translate every string occuring there. Creating translating is than just 
throwing a switch to use the different .rc file. (even better including 
the strings in an external .h file).
