Hi Matthew, sorry for my delayed reply. I have been on vacation for a few days. First of all, I have to say that I am really pissed. I cannot understand what is going on. A few week ago, I suggested a Sommer of Code project that proposed STUN and UPnP support for the Free Network Project client. You bashed my proposal many times and you had lots of arguments why STUN and UPnP is not needed by the Free Network Project. Now, you are the person who is promoting STUN and UPnP. In fact, you come up with the same arguments I have used to underpin the usefulness of STUN and UPnP. I hope you get me right. I am not pissed because you dismissed my proposal. I am pissed because you dismissed my proposal at first and now you are using my ideas. Any explanation about this incident would be very helpful.
However, I try to divide between personal disfavor and the benefit for the Free Network Project. Of course, you can use my JSTUN code and I offer to maintan a Java 1.4. compliant version of JSTUN. Another open source project is already using a Java 1.4 compliant version of JSTUN. So, it will be very easy for me to extract the relevant code and maintain it. I will work on that in the next few days. I keep you informed. Greetings, Thomas On Wednesday 21 June 2006 22:16, you wrote: > We are going to use jSTUN in Freenet 0.7.
