changes mentioned in the other thread, if Freetalk had been ready and the
network hadn't blown up. The network blowing up was in retrospect my fault,
as usual, due to a fairly simple bug. However given the security issues,
given major progress on new load management already made, the relatively
good performance of the network (especially bootstrapping) at the moment,
given that zidel's code is so close to merging, and given that we have
funding, I do think we should proceed with new load management and merging
zidel's new packet format.
