I discarded the request when I first saw it as well, but now I'm thinking about it a bit more. I'm wondering if perhaps Freenet should work on a more generic system for split files that includes combined files? If a site has fifteen 4k pages (60k uncompressed) and five small images (100k total?) and a few large images (200k each), would it not be possible, theoretically, to insert them as chunks? Compress a 60k JAR of HTML to 6k and insert it. Then, retrieving any of the HTML pages gets you all of them. Insert the small images that appear on more than one page as a group again, which may be 150k or so, and insert it so that retrieving any of those common images gets you all of them for the site. Insert the large images individually, possibly as split files (which should be handled, IMHO, much more transparently, or via a JAVA applet). My $0.02. -- Michael T. Babcock CTO, FibreSpeed Ltd.
