Here you can share ideas about new applications that can run on top of Freenet. Before posting you should do a search on "Freenet" in Sourceforge to see if someone else hasn't already started a smiliar project. It is also a good idea to follow certain style in your discussion.
This is not the place to brag which application is better!!! The bragging forum is at ZeroPaid.
The protocol applications use to interact with Freenet
Note : Developers please add a link and a short description of your project here. This may help you recruit coders, users and fans!
Lookout PX is a modular, extendable Freenet client for Windows written in C++. Plug-ins are loaded dynamically and may extend virtually every aspect of Lookout. Currently under development is a transport-independent messaging subsystem, such that any messaging system (TOF, FMB, etc.) can be implemented for Lookout with a standard interface.
Developers familiar with MFC, Win32 programming, or Freenet in general are wanted. Anyone is welcome to contact delta407@invisiblenet.net to get more information about the project.
This is a proposal for a hybrid filesharing system. NRAF will use Freenet as a backbone for searching and listing shares, but the shared items will not be inserted. Transfers between users will be direct, and the users will not be anonymous.
Why would anyone want such thing?
- Thanks to intelligent routing of Freenet NRAF will be efficient for the users, becoming eventually more efficient than the other filesharing apps.
- It will also be efficient for Freenet, because the big mp3 and divx files will not be inserted.
- If NRAF gets popular more people will be running nodes. Freenet in every home?
- Other filesharing apps aren't anonymous either
- It could be implemented as a plugin/module to an existing (and poupular) gnutella client.
It is a win-win situation; those who want to share and leech get to do it more efficiently (even though not anonymously), and those who need anonymity for real reasons will have a more efficient Freenet, thanks to the larger number of nodes.
And last but not least, if NRAF becomes popular, instead of blaming Freenet for facilitating copyright infringment and spreading kiddie porn the authorities will blame NRAF.
Contact me at zlatinb@yahoo.com if you are interested in such project.
Everything Over Freenet (EOF) creates gateways for other protocols (such as SMTP) to work over Freenet.
