Interpeer Project

... but that is going into hobby projects I've neglected. It's a "put on your own oxygen mask before helping others" kind of thing. Part of me feels bad about it, but I also really need it. If you want to help out, the next steps are pretty simple. I've restructured a huge document I produced some years ago on the architecture into three somewhat more coherent and complete pieces: https://specs.interpeer.org/draft-pies/ Starting with problem statement and gap analysis, and finally architecture, I want to...

... finalize them next, to clear a mental burden. The first two are "ready", unless someone needs clarification. So I'd love a bit of feedback on them: here, a PR over on codeberg, or something on the discusssion list mailto:interpeer-subscribe@lists.interpeer.org Otherwise I'll likely declare them final by end of March in this version. The last one I'm reworking more, though it's mostly reshuffling of bits to be clearer. A few additions. It's the perfect time for telling me what...

... trips you up reading them. There are no wrong comments in this. At worst, there may be comments I consider but won't adopt. This isn't deeply technical effort. I would like these documents to be high level enough that they make some kind of sense to most people. So it's effort, yes. A lot to ask. But it's not as if it requires arcane knowledge of the Internet's protocol stack. Thank you, for anything you put into this.

@funz Basically anything just a smidge more than "cool stuff" and then silence would be great. I'm tired of having to push that rock uphill all the time.

@ordnung Vielen Dank! Also ersteinmal fuer die tolle Instanz, und die ganze Muehe, die Ihr da hinein gesteckt habt und noch stecken werdet. Dann nochmal danke fuer die Erklaerung zu Aktivismus. Unter diesem Account poste ich halt updates zum Projekt selber, und poste/booste verwandte Themen, die eigentlich unter Aktivismus fallen. Ich werde das also zukuenftig, mit CW bzw. unlisted machen (wohl eher CW, mal gucken). @_g_baer_ @Maltis @fuzzyleapfrog

@funz ... is met with worry), but there's not much interest in that either, it seems. Donations? I ask for them, too rarely I guess, and it means I won't be able to meet legal requirements for a business next year, aka a business adress somewhere I can reach. Dealing with that is enough to make me want to stop. Admin shit. A German tax accountant's handful of hours a year would be great. It's stuff I can do (badly), but it's still time and energy wasted on one thing rather than another.

@silmathoron Well, it's the end of the year that makes me contemplative. But yes, I'm enjoying the time well enough.
