Hi y'all, time for the weekly status notes again
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Index
|
||
|
1) 0.6.0.3 status
|
||
|
2) IRC status
|
||
|
3) susibt
|
||
|
4) Syndie
|
||
|
5) ???
|
||
|
|
||
|
* 1) 0.6.0.3 status
|
||
|
|
||
|
As mentioned the other day [1], we've got a new 0.6.0.3 release out
|
||
|
there, ready for your enjoyment. Its a big improvement from the
|
||
|
0.6.0.2 release (its not uncommon to get several days without
|
||
|
disconnect on irc - I've had 5 day uptimes broken by an upgrade),
|
||
|
but there are a few things worth noting. Still, its not always like
|
||
|
that - people with slow net connections run into troubles, but its
|
||
|
progress.
|
||
|
|
||
|
One (very) common question has come up regarding the peer test code-
|
||
|
"Why does it say Status: Unknown?" Unknown is *perfectly fine* - it
|
||
|
is NOT indicitive of a problem. Also, if you see it sometimes go
|
||
|
between "OK" and "ERR-Reject", that DOESN'T mean its ok - if you ever
|
||
|
see ERR-Reject, that means its very likely that you've got a NAT or
|
||
|
firewall issue. I know its confusing, and there'll be a release
|
||
|
later with clearer status display (and automatic resolution, when
|
||
|
possible), but for now, don't be suprised if I ignore you when you
|
||
|
say "omg its broken!!!11 the status is Unknown!" ;)
|
||
|
|
||
|
(The cause for the excess Unknown status values is because we are
|
||
|
ignoring peer tests where "Charlie" [2] is someone we already have
|
||
|
an SSU session with, since that implies they'd be able to get
|
||
|
through our NAT even if our NAT is broken)

|
* 2) IRC status
|
||
|
|
||
|
As mentioned above, the Irc2P operators have done a great job with
|
||
|
their network, as latency is way down and reliability way up - I
|
||
|
haven't seen a netsplit in days. There's also a new irc server on
|
||
|
there, giving us 3 - irc.postman.i2p, irc.arcturus.i2p, and
|
||
|
irc.freshcoffee.i2p. Perhaps one of the Irc2P folks can give us an
|
||
|
update on their progress during the meeting?
|
||
|
|
||
|
* 3) susibt
|
||
|
|
||
|
susi23 (of susimail fame) is back with a pair of bt related tools -
|
||
|
susibt [3] and a new tracker bot [4]. susibt is a web application
|
||
|
(trivially deployable in your i2p jetty instance) for managing
|
||
|
i2p-bt's operation. As her site says:
|
||
|
|
||
|
SusiBT is a web frontend for i2p-bt. It integrates into your i2p
|
||
|
router and allows for automatic up- and downloads, resumes after
|
||
|
restart and some management functionality like file up- and
|
||
|
download. Later versions of the application will support automatic
|
||
|
build and upload of torrent files.

Can I hear a "w00t"?
|
||
|
|
||
|
* 4) Syndie
|
||
|
|
||
|
As mentioned on the list and in the channel, we've got a new
|
||
|
client app for secure and authenticated blogging / content
|
||
|
distribution. With Syndie, the "is your eepsite up" question goes
|
||
|
away, as you can read the content even when the site is down, but
|
||
|
Syndie avoids all the ugly issues inherent in content distribution
|
||
|
networks by focusing on the frontend. Anyway, its very much a work
|
||
|
in progress, but if people want to get in and try it out, there's
|
||
|
a public Syndie node at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://syndiemedia.i2p/">http://syndiemedia.i2p/</a> (also reachable on
|
||
|
the web at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://66.111.51.110:8000/">http://66.111.51.110:8000/</a>). Feel free to go in there
|
||
|
and create a blog, or if you're feeling adventurous, blog up some
|
||
|
comments/suggestions/concerns! Of course, patches are welcome, but
|
||
|
so are feature suggestions, so let 'er rip.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* 5) ???
|
||
|
|
||
|
Saying lots going on is a bit of an understatement... beyond the
|
||
|
above, I'm hacking on some improvements to SSU's congestion control
|
||
|
(-1 is in cvs already), our bandwidth limiter, and the netDb (for
|
||
|
the occational site unreachability), as well as debugging the CPU
|
||
|
issue reported on the forum. I'm sure others are hacking on some
|
||
|
cool things to report as well, so hopefully they'll swing by the
|
||
|
meeting tonight to rant away :)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Anyway, see y'all tonight at 8pm GMT in #i2p on the usual servers!
