Here is my 2cents in this whole thing. I think that netsukuku needs to be a
little more modular. For instance, for those who want to talk about
algorithms and efficiency please get together and write a spec. For the
programmers lets start looking programming whether it be Vala, C, or Pythong
(notice how java is not an option). Like Luca said lets get a "a working
implementation" out. Forgive my ignorance and lack of introduction. Consider
me part of the peanut gallery for now.
