This becomes complicated: what messages to fetch depends on the WoT trust level of each client. If WoT is independent, how would the underlying system know what to fetch, but not fetch messages from spam identities? Another point brought up by a Frost user: his node runs on a slow old PC (I also know people who run the node on silent PCs), and his system is utilized. He cannot run another CPU/memory eating plugininside the node, he wants to run fms from another box, using FCP2 to request keys only. > > _______________________________________________ > Tech mailing list > Tech at freenetproject.org > http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech > -- __________________________________________________ GnuPG key: (0x48DBFA8A) Keyserver: pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de Fingerprint: 477D F057 1BD4 1AE7 8A54 8679 6690 E2EC 48DB FA8A __________________________________________________
