I have noticed that those who insert Freesites on a regular basis seem 
to have to resort to strategies which shouldn't be necessary.  Such 
strategies include inserting with extremely high HTLs (some even suggest 
inserting with HTLs above 25 - unaware that HTLs are reduced to 25 by 
Freenet).  They also include inserting the freesite several times from 
different nodes (or the same node with a wiped datastore).

Given that Freenet is nothing without its content, we need to figure out 
why such unusual lengths are necessary, and fix Freenet so that they 
aren't.  One insertion should be perfectly sufficient with a HTL low 
enough that the insertion doesn't take a rediculous amount of time.

Could people who do insert Freesites regularly please comment on their 
experiences, and also I would welcome any theories on what the problems 
might be, and ways that we could diagnose them.

Thanks,

Ian.
