Talk:I2P

message: The issues about limitations of TCP transport are by at large no longer relevant, as jrandom has updated the transport layer to utilize UDP, thus dramatically reducing the number of threads necessary to run. The article is short on information, especially technical information, and NPoV is not clearly there, however the rapid changes to I2P and its attendant software make it difficult to keep the article in sync, for which I would support that any statement about I2P would go accompanied by a version number of the program, so users could know at a glance if the recent versions of I2P suffer from a given problem, etc. --Eulen 15:33, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Update about I2P publicity 

message: I came here from Hamachi entry - noticed that someone made a change saying that 'i2p is too nat-aware vpn' (or something to that extent). Also looking at I2P article tags, it is filed under 'virtual private networking' genre. Strictly speaking I2P is not VPN, it is an overlay networking framework. The difference is subtle, yet it exists. "VPN" typically refers to the system that transparently integrates with a host operating system either via use of virtual adapters or bump-in-the-stack traffic interception. I2P can potentially be used for implementing VPN, but this is not something that it supports at the moment. 
PS. Don't mean to be anal :) I come from industrial VPN background and I felt that the clarification was in order. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.87.213.133 (talk • contribs) .
:I'm not familiar enough with these subtleties to do the edits myself, perhaps you could suggest what specific changes should be made to the article to clarify this point? Or even better, just go ahead and make the changes directly - be bold. :) Bryan 09:40, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  VPN vs Overlay Network 

message: (moved from the reverted POV from the main article, to keep the inspiration for developers)
* Shutdown option from the windows tray icon	 
* Plugin that configures windows to only use .i2p webpages to the proxy	 
* More peers (get on this everyone)	 
* Sleep mode (so it donates more bandwidth while at I'm at work)
What is with all the "a la"s? -anonymous user
I am pretty sure you can get the only i2p address proxying with a firefox plugin now. Anyway, it's not i2p's mission to write plugins for all browsers. --84.178.75.127 08:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Lacking Features

message: Do we want to keep some sort of version history in this article? Not noting every version of course, but the most important features that came with every new minor increment (next one would be 6.2). Adding dates to this would give a broad overview how this project moves along. --84.178.75.127 08:36, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Version histroy

message: I believe the first paragraph should be cleaned of technobabble and give an overview of what I2P can do, because regular people may want to get at least some information before being turned away by a lot of words they don't understand. I have started this by adding the possible applications to the first paragraph. Maybe some stuff could be moved in the second paragraph and the anonymous / pseudonymous stuff could be worded better (however, there is no such thing as an anonymous network, this should be made clear). --84.178.75.127 08:57, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:I2plogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

message: I removed the link to anarcho-capitalism from "See Also", cause I can't figure out what, if anything, I2P has to do with it.  Crypto-anarchism I can see (though it's a bit of a stretch), but anarcho-capitalism just seems random.  Yourcelf (talk) 20:31, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Information on Privacy

message: Which version of the Artistic License is I2P licensed under? Version 1.0 is considered GPL-incompatible. Logictheo (talk) 22:15, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Artistic License", which version? 

message: This statement does not make sense:
  The name I2P is derived from Invisible Internet Project, which, in pseudo-mathematical notation, is represented as I²P.
The 2 in I2P represents the 2 words starting with the letter "I" -- ("Invisible Internet").  It has nothing to do with exponents (as in I²P).
Instead, I2P appears to be a numeronym just like i18n, W3C -- a word where a number is used to form an abbreviation.
I propose to change the above sentence to:
  The name I2P appears to be a numeronym for Invisible Internet Project.
Thoughts?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by JonathanCross (talk • contribs) 09:27, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  I2P is not pseudo-mathematical notation 

message: For a while now (many months, possibly more) there has been an alternate implementation of I2P, written in c++ called i2pd. There was also a now discontinued implementation called i2pcpp. At what point (if any) does this page get split into I2P(protocol), I2P(java software), I2Pd(c++ software) or is a section named alternate implementations enough? This page is a mishmash between the protocol and main implementation.

thread_title:  i2pd 

message: I asked Jimmy Wales about creating an eepsite for Wikipedia on his talk page here.
This would be good for improving Wikipedia's resilience and allow people to anonymously read, and potentially/preferably also write, Wikipedia.
I'd be interested in what you think of this. Are there I2P mirrors of Wikipedia already? Do you have some concerns with this or could you provide help in implementing this?
For instance I guess improving anonymous write-access to Wikipedia also opens doors to some types of malicious edits and hence I'd suggest to have all edits made via I2P remain pending (or alike) even if the page is unprotected.
I also suggested a Tor hidden service and some other cybersecurity measures in the talk page entry.

message: I added the "relies too heavily on primary sources" template, because a majority of the references are directly from I2P or getI2P or github, etc.  The information is not necessarily inaccurate, but a good article always has some extra perspectives and references ;-)   Popcrate (talk) 06:35, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

message: === Reference rot ===
Reference 69 Redirects to a website for a design company. Reference is named as being the website for the Privacy Solutions Project. This may be due to a domain name lease expiring.
=== Insufficent references ===
The following references may be insufficient:
*9: Page does not contain any proof of the claim that I2P developers were part of IIP. This may be intended to link to The contact page, but this page is also insufficient as a source because it does not list developers who were later part of I2P. Additional inspection reveals that none of the names on the IIP contact page appear on the I2P contact page.
*77 (under terminology/eepsite): This page does not match the text it is a reference for. (Page does not contain "Eepsite," ".i2p," or "EepProxy", nor does it talk about cryptographic identifier keys or the hosts.txt file.) This could be changed to a duplicate of reference 77. (note that I made another reference a reuse of this reference, make sure to change that one to be independent if you decide to edit or remove this reference.)
