Whatever the personal opinion of the single Freenet developers/contributors might be (and we don't want to know), the Freenet Project can't afford legal suits from the rich, powerful, and politically tied media industry. IMHO negative media attention is better than no media attention, but the problem is that at least some of those lawsuits will be lost, with many financial and legal consequences possibly leading to the project being forcibly shut down or bankrupted, or both, leading to the end of the Freenet project. Terefore, the official policy of the Freenet project MUST be to heavily discourage copyright-infringing use of Freenet and deny support to known "pirates" -this last detail is necessary in order to cut any possible legal bound that a clever lawyer could try to use in court. If the Freenet project is sued for copyright infringement, Ian or who ever gets to represent the project in court can always claim that official members of the Freenet crew adhere to a strict anti-piracy policy, refusing to even *talk* to copyright "pirates". This is a matter of survival, the project must go on and in order to finish the job Freenet needs to protect itself from the possibility of law suits.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7 build 1193
Freenet 0.7 build 1193 is now available. Please upgrade. Changes: - Significant changes to the old-opennet-peers mechanism, should make reconnecting after downtime much quicker, nodes should get back to where they were on the network more quickly even after long downtimes. This will only really be testable after Tuesday when 1193 is mandatory. We now keep 25 old-opennet-peers, which had been useful to us (i.e. weren't dropped from the bottom of the LRU by either us or the other peer, just disconnected when the node went down etc). We constantly try to reconnect to them for up to a month. - Various other opennet tweaks and bugfixes, some may be significant: we were making far too few connection offers on nodes receiving a lot of un-decodeable or old-opennet-peer packets, and also fixes to going over the 20 peers limit. - Some connectivity fixes, for nodes with multiple IP addresses (e.g. if connecting to local/LAN IPs is enabled), and sending packets when we had decided not to send packets. - Public gateway mode: If enabled, users who are allowed to access fproxy but don't have full access to the node cannot access the global queue and cannot fetch files over 2MB. - Minor fixes to fproxy. Credits: ian esr sdiz toad Meanwhile, sdiz has been doing a lot of work on XMLSpider, which now uses db4o to reduce memory usage, although it is not yet able to resume across restarts. And p0s has the Freetalk plugin actually loadable and testable, with one message successfully posted; see the wot list for more info.
