a general question: why does freenet use java? if it is all about freedom as it says , it should not depend on (and thus promote) non-free software! i really like the spirit of it and i would like use it (and spread it ;) ), but from an ideological point of view refuse to install non-free software on my computer. also the dependency on sun' java reduces portabaility by tieing the user to certain operating systems and cpu-architectures. please consider free alternatives over java or at least make it useable with gcj. thank you very much and keep up the work hannes hauswedell _______________________________________________ chat mailing list [email protected] Archived: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.general Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/chat Or mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
