Which really fries my bacon. We must defend freenet!! I would do more
to help if I could, but my programming skill isn't good enough by far! :(

Ah man, come on, just as I was starting to like the PigDog Journal you go
and take the freenet mirror away. :( By the way, I have a suggestion for
improving download speed for the freenet mirror, make everything CHKs
instead of SSKs, or whatever it is your useing, because my browser keeps
trying to download stuff that it downloaded in previos issues. It takes
too long to download everything. If everything were CHKs then the
browser wouldn't need to download the things over and over again, it
would only download them once, as long as they still exist in my caches.
I was wondering if there could be another key type that allows you to
request a file, but only if you have the password for that namespace.
And have some other key be able to insert data into that namespace. I
would like this functionality for purposes of private messaging, freenet
email. If it can be done, please, someone, do it. :) Anyone will be
able to insert data into a namespace that has been created for the
express purpose of being used for private messaging, and then those
messages can't be read by anyone without the private key.
