Hi folks. I've been writing code as volunteer for Freenet for ~3 years: I'm the main developer of the Freetalk anonymous forum system, ~60 000 lines of code. To be fair I should mention that there is quite some code from other contributors (newsreader interface, old core code which I have rewritten) in it but I did review all code in Freetalk  Grin

Anyway, I highly appreciate efforts to run Bitcoin on top of Freenet for giving it an anonymous backend.
I do not have the time for contributing code to it myself since I shall spend all my volunteer-efforts on improving Freetalk, but I can offer the following services:

(1) Reviewing the on-Freenet storage architecture which xelister is planning once he has written a full specification for it
(2) Reviewing actual code which is produced by him for proper design, in terms of best programming practices and proper usage of Freenet API.

Depending on the size of the resulting specification of (1) I might do that for free. I'm not the optimal person for it because even though I'm a computer science student my math evaluations are usually not full mathematical proofs but rather things like "Feels like O(N*log(n))".
(2) will probably lots of work so I'd require some donations for it  Wink
But I feel qualified for (2) as I'm rather anal about code cleanness and I'm a person who enjoys programming anyway.

I'd like to get my identity validated by the mods if thats possible - it didn't seem like the forum require me to validate the email address, which would be useful because I have an @freenetproject one.
