I really like the *idea*, but I wish it were easier to implement. It  
would be a pain to enter that huge noderef by hand.

We have anonymous connection logic (ala opennet), so I don't see why  
we couldn't just have something like this to pass to people:

freenet://192.168.0.128:4567/14/xYaEue344

IP, port, noderef#, and a hash of the contents of the noderef #.

Couldn't we then fetch the noderef from the given ip with very-good  
certainty and forgo the long references?

I guess this presumes the ip & port number stay static long enough to  
be useful.

BigInteger use java.util.Arrays.copyOfRange and friends, which are java 6 only.

Upon registering I got this message:

SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]
MySQL server has gone away [2006]
An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the
Board Administrator if this problem persists.

Unofficial support forums with domain registered in my name (I would 
transfer it to the Freenet Project if asked).
Devs will get admin access if they ask for it; some non-devs "old 
thrustworthy users" may also get pivileged access. PM me on the message 
board if you want to help with admin and moderation. I definitely need 
help with admin, there are some things that I havent figured out yet. 
Moderation isnt an issue yet but it probably will be when the users base 
grows in size.

Couldn't every freenet node create a freesite with only the noderef? 

Then we'd just have to hand out the public key to that freesite, if we want to 
connect to people who already use opennet. 

A missing piece would still be a shorthand, though: A way to shorten the huge 
freenet URL to something we can actually type - like your URL, but as a 
freenet link. 

And even if it's a freenet link, we might be able to reduce its complexity by 
devising an alternate representation - for example splitting the link into 6 
pieces. 

Currently an URL looks like this: 
- http://127.0.0.1:/u...@wptde7h1dshd1shsl-j5loyyha8nx3oje5yhusnt7ra,-
iyrzP61KoWdQDK2omI7GgV~65mwGfWtDnbi1uzp0xc,AQACAAE/freenet-cards/11/

We could make it a nicer node identity like this: 

wptdE7H1DsHd1SH
sL-J5LoyYha8Nx3
oje5yhusNT7rA,

-iyrzP61KoWdQDK
2omI7GgV~65mwGf
WtDnbi1uzp0xc,

AQACAAE

This is still kinda long, but doesn't look as horrible. 

But we would have a huge list of sites which have to be kept online. 

Or we could go the route of i2p and create a pseudo-DNS, where nodes can 
register their node-ref. Something like freemail, maybe (though I don't know 
how secure that is internally). 

Using IP+port doesn't look viable for me, though, because in Germany almost 
noone has a stable IP. The only way I see for that would be dyndns. 

Best wishes, 
Arne

I'd love to see this too. We have a couple of long-standing reports 
about this already though:

https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=166 (Proper invite mechanism )

https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=1343 (Darknet: short
