Of course you are free to believe and state that: a) Alpt demonstrated that the mathematical model behind ntk *works* fairly well b) ntk has already been completely prototyped and tested c) what we need now is an efficient implementation d) there is someone willing to actually do this in C
However, I would like to tell my point of view to the other fellows of the mailing list. 1) The last document that I read from Alpt didn't seem to me like a *complete* mathematical proof of the ntk model working well. 2) It is roughly one year that I don't see any kind of activity from Alpt on the project. One year ago the algorithms behind the netsukuku daemon were substantially different from the present ones in some crucial aspects. I described the new ones, which I implemented, on the developers' mailing list but I have no evidence that someone did read my emails. 3) Considering 1) and 2) I think that ntk still needs some time in prototyping and testing. 4) Fast development aside, I think that a well written program in Vala can be as efficient as in C. So, I encourage anyone who wants to see soon a working implementation able to run on embedded devices, to focus with me in this Vala porting. --Luca _______________________________________________ Netsukuku mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dyne.org/mailman/listinfo/netsukuku
