Network Health

You might have noticed that the last couple of days the health of
the I2P network has been very bad. It is impossible to connect to
the IRC server and also other services are failing often.

This behaviour is caused the I2P tunnels not dealing well with the
traffic them, instead of quickly dropping excessive connections, it
tries to serve them all; which results in a nasty traffic jam. The
increased network traffic caused by the torrents is likely the
cause for this behaviour showing up early.
</duck's attempt to summarize the problem>

As we know, jrandom is working on the new streaming library, which
will fix this problem. Repairing the current design is not easy;
I think it will be a waste of time with the new lib near.

duck, over & out.

Ah, this is why I can't connect to anything.  I'm glad to know that it's
(probably) not my fault.  Thanks for the heads up.

Source File Naming

Is there a reason the source tarball for I2P is named "i2p_0_4_1_4.tar.bz2"
instead of "i2p-0.4.1.4.tar.bz2"?

Source File Naming

I'm sorry if I missed an answer to this, but:

Is there a reason the I2P tarball uses underscores in the filename instead of
dashes and dots?  The reason I ask is because I'm working on developing an
installation file for it using my distro's package management system, and if
the file has dashes and dots a chunk of the management is taken care of for me.

There may be a perfectly valid reason for the underscores, and that's fine.  But
can anyone tell me?

Re: Source File Naming


Hi todd,

Sorry for the delay - the short answer is that there's no
significant reason.  I threw together a script that I use for
packaging the builds and shoving it off to www.i2p.net, and in it
the filename is the same as the CVS tag.  If it'll help, I'll
tweak it a bit to use '-' and '.' for further releases.
