The list has been very silent since the 0.2.6 release. Does that mean
that it works for everybody, or that you have been too busy to try it
out?
If it works, I think the plan is as follows:
1. Write some more docs,
2. Release and announce lsh-0.9 a little more loudly.
3. Go on hacking: Next targets are (i) Bazsi's proxy code, (ii)
gateway mode, (iii) improve the randomnes code on systems without
/dev/random.
4. Serious bugs in 0.9 can be fixed on a separate branch, to keep it
stable.
Does that sound reasonable?
And I'd really like some more feedback on 0.2.6 before going forward.
Best regards,
