; Proposed Hacker Distribution Network
; TIC Distribution System
; By Light Ray 06/06/95
; DNA-0001.001
; Notes:
; o It'd be nice if we could use Black Flag, since I wrote it. (:
; (it's a TIC processor). Black Flag is neat because it can track
; files as they go through the network. In the next release, Black
; Flag will have an Areafix and support the new fidonet Distributed
; File Request System
;
; o In addittion, we should have all files on all boards in DNA be
; requestable through the front-end mailer, perhaps only to sites
; in the Nodelist or passworded systems.
;
; o If requests are only allowed from secure systems, then most likely
; it would only be possible to FREQ from one's direct uplinks and
; down-links - which would not be very wonderful.
;
; o Setting up a Distributed FREQ system would allow ROUTED file
; requests, eliminating the above annoyance.
;
; o Routed file requests would probably magnify the phone bills of
; area-code/country hubs.
;
; o Upgrading to mailers which support bidirectional mail transfers
; would help ease this burden. Xenia (for OS/2 or DOS) supports the
; Hydra protocol. LoraBBS (for OS/2 or DOS) supports the Janus
; bidirectional protocol.
;
; o If all systems had CyberFile running, DNA (the HDN) would become
; the largest, most powerful hack-phreak-technical information seek
; facility available.
;
; o Echo tags should meet 8 character limit due to limitation
; in some old TIC processors. However, echo tags longer than eight
; characters are much nicer - if we agree only to use newer TIC
; processors, then we can have long echo tags.
;
; o Black Flag version 1.60 (with the 1.50 documentation) may be freqed
; from me as BLACK160.ZIP. CyberFile may be freqed as CYBERFILE,
; CYBRFILE, or CF051.ZIP. The current version is 0.51 with 0.52 due
; out very soon. I'm sure I could provide DNA members with registered
; copies. (: To try out CyberFile, call up the Digital Forest and
; hit /C from the File Menu. For those of you that are as yet
; uninitiated, CyberFile allows sysops to put files on cd-roms,
; tapes, other BBS's, etc, up on the BBS. Really nice interface.
; [blatant advertisement mode off]
;
; o Since DNA is relatively small and its particapants are open minded,
; DNA would provide an excellent test-bed for alternate network
; systems and topologies. It would be interesting to implement the
; proposed fidonet nameserver proposal and other new things. In such
; a system, Digital Decay becomes digital_decay.dna.org instead of
; 66:714/0. It's neat.
; o Proposed File Echo Tags
; - remember, you can group these areas into single directories on
; your bbs. For example, you could tell your TIC processor to put
; all HDN-DNA and HDN-ILL files into the same directory. For this
; reason, I am making the areas very specific. You can group the
; files automatically into less-specific areas when they get to your
; board, but the opposite cannot be done without human evaluation.
; Personally, I just have all my inbound TICs directed into my
; UPLOADs directory. [with Black Flag, I just add this to my config:
; AREA * F:\DLOADS\UPLOADS and all files get sent to uploads. (:
;
; o In case it's not completely apparent, I like the programs I have
; written. (:
;
; o I can rebroadcast the files I receive from Renegade Support Network
; over to the HDN-BBSx areas.
