This is partially true. However there has been significant progress on announcement and UOM towards the end of last week. The UOM may help to bring back a significant proportion of the lost nodes, which I believe to be old forgotten nodes with update enabled but for which it was failing due to bugs introduced around the time of the new packet format changes. > >Every non-pedo > >board on 0.7.5 has been DOS-ed out of commission, or is the target of a > >spam bot.

Frost is broken by design, and is therefore deprecated, period. Use FMS or Freetalk. If you don't like the negative trust issues with FMS and Freetalk, write a patch to only do positive trust. IMHO it would be fairly easy. Whoever is doing the DoS probably leaves out the pedo boards on purpose... > > Is this even remotely true? Has 0.7.5 been losing large numbers of nodes?

It was a specific event around December/January that we are recovering from. (Before that we saw slow growth). It was probably due to bugs and performance problems when introducing new disruptive code - specifically the new packet format code, which was necessary due to both polling issues and new load management issues, but which we have still not fully sorted out. http://127.0.0.1:8888/freenet:USK@gjw6StjZOZ4OAG-pqOxIp5Nk11udQZOrozD4jld42Ac,BYyqgAtc9p0JGbJ~18XU6mtO9ChnBZdf~ttCn48FV7s,AQACAAE/graphs/1035/ http://127.0.0.1:8888/freenet:USK@85gZTCiQO9IEPDAGvjktO9d-ZMS1lIABR6JB85m4ens,VGDItiCVzCcWAay51faZzcIfAepzeHpzXYvChlueWYE,AQACAAE/stats/1347/
