Progress
Zooko [1] and Icepick [2] merged the newnet and metatrackerrouter
branches into the head branch. With some debugging help from
Tschechow [3] the unit tests are again passing. (At least those that
were passing before the merge.) Progress is being steadily made
on the Head branch, and its looking like an unstable release is
imminent.
Docs
Artimage [4] spent some time working on the project roadmap [5], it is
now up to date. In this doc we explain the state of the union, so to
speak, and where we plan to head from here. Basically, things are
looking good, but more work is needed, but we say it with a lot more
detail in the doc.
Twisted Branch
I would like to take this space to welcome some twisted people to
our little world. You know, when you name a project twisted you
just can't help making tons of puns. Anyway, a few Twisted
developers have been good enough to drop in and checkout our
code, we couldn't be more pleased to have some new friends. And
in a sort of chicken and egg situation, a new branch has been
created in mnet_new for work on porting to the Twisted [6] framework.
(Oddly enough the tag is branch_twisted) So, welcome to our
twisted branch. (Man, the puns are just too easy.)
Help wanted
What would Mnet be without its fun loving group of developers
wasting countless hours on irc talking about crypto? Well it
would sort of be like the A-Team without Murdoch, or Scooby
snacks [7] without the "herbal medicine".
Are you tired of working for "the man"?
Would you like to join the global subversive emergent network
jihad?
Well you can! Act fast and receive your free starter kit,
complete with:
* Secret decoder ring. (DHT)
* Strong crypto.
* Arch nemesis [8].
* Secret underground laboratory. (irc.freenode.net #mnet)
* and Source code [9].
And if you act now you'll also receive all the love and praise
you missed out on in high school. So join now!
