Re: [Mldonkey-users] Now that Filenexus, Sharer eactorand Jigle are gone

[Esperanza Glass]

Let's not start flaming. It is true that I can't do much else than dream, 
because I don't have time or ability to make code. That doesn't change the fact 
that we should consider something to secure our ed2k link pages. I think that 
there is nothing wrong with the links. The problem is that the pages are closed 
down. I was part of the community when masenka/filenexus and gowennas site and 
sharereactor were started and I'm sad to see them gone. Also Jigle was great 
search tool for ed2k network.

The idea of freenet is interesting. I have tried freenet few years ago and lot 
might have changed after that. My concern is the overhead that it causes. Would 
it be possible to incorporate easy to use freenet and freenet interface to 
existing mldonkey. How much it would increase the traffic? Many people (me 
included) have very limited bandwidth...

hopey
