Reiska isn't really built on top of libfreenet. I stol^Wborrowed some of the code and adapted it to the glib-1.2 type and memory allocation system, so you can see traces of the libfreenet code here and there. I don't think that in a system like freenet where node behaviour is pretty much a part of the protocol itself, that you could just rip out the protocol, put it in a library and then update the library without updating the node. I'll certainly implement a client protocol for the higher-level stuff than just "insert this key. and this key. fetch that one.". (perhaps a libfcp type library would be appropriate for this? anyway, it's far too early for Reiska to be thinking about these things...) -- Kalle A.
