One question I just thought of: I was wondering what the chances are
that the guys who do MediaEnforcer actually developed their own
software to talk to nodes.
http://www.mediaenforcer.com/
AFAIK, Fred is the only working 0.3-protocol-compatible software out
there (liberator & freenetlib.py are back at 0.2, right? and whiterose
and nfreenetd are still struggling).
I'm just a little skeptical that these guys could get a working
product up without -any- Fred code in it fast enough to make these
press statements. If it -did- have Fred code in it, I believe that
they'd have to put it under GPL -- since Fred is GPL and not LGPL.
I guess I just wanted to loft that balloon out there. If there's a
nice FSF lawyer or someone who could send a letter to these guys, it
might be a good stalling tactic. Hell, I dunno.

P.S. Oh, crap -- looks like they run as an ASP. Hrm. I seem to
remember some ASP loophole in the GPL or some such. Man, check these
fuX0rs out!
