Couldn't we have the node immediately check for the revocation key when it finds a new update and wait for the revocation key check to return before displaying the update button? Admittedly there would be a tiny chance that the key could be blown in between when the revocation was checked for and when the user actually updates the node but it would offer a much nicer user experience. Maybe a compromise and have it do 3 checks before showing the button and only one after the user clicks the update button?

Yes, but it doesn't work instantly. It has to run a final check to determine whether the update really is genuine (the key hasn't been blown). This involves fetching the revocation key 3 times which can take a while. > > Thanks, > --Joel -- Matthew J Toseland - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible.
