It's interesting how the word "I" is used persistently by Mr. Clarke, even though it was a (supposedly) group decision made by the board. If this decision was indeed made by a group of people, after debating and evaluating the pros, cons and consequences of same, I would've expected the word "we" being used more prominently.

For what's it worth, I personally hold very little interest in Freenet any more (after spending almost 8 years teaching students about it as part of my peer-to-peer systems curriculum, and running the node since 0.3 days), mostly because in my personal opinion its goals (and the goals of Locutus, to that end) can no longer be achieved in the modern world of cheap and infinite on-demand computing. The window of opportunity for that had closed about 10 years ago. But seeing something which was dear and near to me being mismanaged in this way is still pretty... painful.

Victor Denisov.

  You do not care about the currently existing, vibrant Freenet Community?

I care about the maintainers and users of Fred, and I've said I do

This is the room that Freenet304987 is talking about.

Best wishes,
Arne
