I would like to see a linux distribution, prolly based on debian or ubuntu, that has freenet and other aspects of cryptography deeply integrated into the system from first install. I feel it is very important to get as many people on freenet as possible, but it is a complicated concept to grasp (that doesn't make it any less important). 2008-12-12T04:30:53Z 81 12 8861 General general How would making a livecd or other form of distribution make Freenet a less complicated concept? It would be useful to have an easily deployable node however, using a USB stick or swap space... But this is out of scope for the project proper, maybe some volunteer will build it. And *you will still need to complete the wizard in any case* to specify your security settings, and you might need to specify which drives to use etc. How would making a livecd or other form of distribution make Freenet a less complicated concept?

For new (non-technical) users it may be very difficult to understand what they really need, how to do it and how to use it. The entry point of an application plus its visible style, the user interface aso. are playing the biggest role for acceptance nowadays. Therefore there may be the need of a GUI (I imagine one written in XUL, so it runs on all plattforms, easily extensible, aso., we are already using a custom firefox profile so why don't write our own user interface?) that provides all mechanisms that are available throughout the freenet network. File sharing, messaging, flogs, identity management and others. 216 3 under review 8861 General general We are working on improving the web interface, and integrating more functionality into it - particularly Freetalk, but also an easy blogging tool.

I mean, stop all network traffic, warn peers that we are on pause, but keep the node alive. That would allow short downtimes for online gaming without the hassle of having to restart the node and wait for it becoming usable again. 174 1 planned 8861 General general Devs have been considering this idea for a while as "offline mode". IMHO it's a good idea... Actually the bit about warning peers to minimise traffic is an interesting point, we might actually want to keep connections up to avoid incoming reconnect attempts? How important is a system tray icon? Would it be acceptable to turn pause mode on and off on the web interface? Devs have been considering this idea for a while as "offline mode".
