Hi.
I am at a bit of a loss as to how the noderef is managed by the individual Freenet node and the upgrade script. I am running Freenet with "do announce", which I figure has the purpose of telling the world that I exist and would like to be added to other peoples list of nodes. At the same time I assume that I am building up my own internal list of good contact nodes by simply surfing Freenet and thus interacting with the network. But whenever I update, I get two files - the "jar" and a much lager "noderef". Assuming that the latter contains a list of known good contact nodes, will this file then overwrite the one I have in my system already? Or maybe append itself to it? Or is it simply discarded by my node because it already has one? If the one I've built by running and using Freenet simply gets overwritten by the noderef, wouldt that mean that my node have to integrate itself into the network from scratch everytime I update? To add to my confusion, I've noticed that people often get the advice to "re-seed" when complaining about too many RNF's, and they are even provided with a special link for that. Isnt "re-seed" what we all do automatically everytime we update? Is the noderef from that special link "better" than the one I get every time I upgrade?
