I'm new to this mailing list, but I know Freenet, FMB and Frost. I hope I can help you:
- You can download Frost from http://jtcfrost.sourceforge.net/downloadindex.html (www.freenetproject.org -> "Third Party Tools" -> Frost) To run Frost you only need "Frost.jar". In a new directory run the command "java -jar frost.jar" and Frost will start. Fill in the preferences (if not standard, for example other Freenet host, port, ...) and wait for a while. After some hours your Frost is updated with the newest boards. In the Information window you can add other boards to listen and post. Other questions: please ask in the Frost board "frost" or "frost_help" - For FMB: It's the software made by nacktschneck, his freesite is edition-based. (for Freenet help read Nubile's site http://127.0.0.1:8888/SSK@qe3ZRJg1Nv1XErADrz7ZYjhDidUPAgM/nubile/10// ) FMB is now in the version alpha4a, if a new alpha version is out, you can surf to the 6th version. You need "fmb.jar" to run FMB with the command "java -jar fmb.jar". Then you should chose an unique nickname; your private/public keypair will be generated. Everyone can if a message is yours by your public key. Then you should rightclick to some active users and listen to their channel. - I don't think that the freesite creator of colours is the same like the one of the FMB-site. He wrote on his site, that you can send him a feedback over Nearly Instant Messaging (NIM, it's embedded in the freesite), over the "colours" board in Frost or over FMB. His nick on FMB is "nobody else". With the coloured links on the top you can surf to other editions. If you reached the end of the chain, then is that edition not yet inserted (or it's fallen out of Freenet). Good luck!
