Re: [freenet-support] Timed content

Quoting daniele [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I was thinking about the incredible amount of space that is used within
 freenet to hold contents that no one will never try to retrieve,
 because, for example, they are obsolete.
 If the person that puts the content on freenet knows that, for example,
 within 1 week, it will be obsolete, because of newer releases or because
 no one will know no more about its existence (eg: files shared via
 frost), or for anything else, it would be great if he could specify a
 time when every node keeping parts of the file can delete them (removing
 the file from freenet).

God no.  Please not this again...

This idea has been discussed before.  I've looked in the archives for relevant
email, but it was a long time ago and I can't find it.  (using gmane anyway)

Part of the problem with your idea, daniele, is that it goes against the design
of the Freenet network.  It amounts to censorability and there's no perceived
need for it anyway.

Re: [freenet-support] wget: a freenet trainer?

 do yourself a favour and do not use wget; use puf (google for it)
 this downloader comes along fine with the '//' without being hacked and
 patched, is able to download dozens of files in parallel (which is extremely
 useful as transfers take a long time with freenet) and can be
 configured much more in detail than wget can

Oh, man...  I've been searching for a downloader that would work with Freenet
for a long time.  I've tried big bloated website mirroring tools, browser
plug-ins, and a hacked version of wget (which worked, but didn't work out). 
And suddenly - *poof* - comes puf.  Thanks for the tip, panamerica.

RE: [freenet-support] is there any documentation

2004-09-16 Thread Nicholas Sturm


I didn't understand that answer about load either -- of course I've never know what was being "carried" in that "load." Concept clearly is meaningful only to those who understand what constitutes "load." If one knows the answer, it can be hard to understand the question. If one does not know the answer,

Subject: [freenet-support] is there any documentation

also, who do i interpret the other data under "load" on the general information page as well as the other pages?

thanks.
