Hello <$all>,
we've been recently in touch regarding Askemos. Now I might need
some help, if you can.
Until Wed, 23 Jan 2013 15:55:00 +0100 the Askemos cloud ran on
a rather healthy mix of peers.
"Pardon me?" }:-| ??? …

A little off-topic for this list, but it comes up now and then so I'll dive into it. Every time Askemos comes up I get a deep curiousity that has me exclaiming "What is this thing?!" Especially after perusing pages like this one <http://askemos.org/Ad60e3fb123a79b2e5128915116b288f7/index.html/?_v=footnote&_id=1223>.…
And, erm, what are the minimal steps for bootstrapping a server which can
collaborate on this *ethical cloud*?
…An almost healthy mix, that is. For historic reasons three of
those eight peers of the development network, which originally where
at different locations, ended up behind a single point of failure. Since
the system promises fail-stop, I can't even add a note into my blog.
Given the trouble I expect more. In case of trouble: all URL's
given here would/could/should be served from several locations.
*IF* the URL after the askemos.org part starts with an
"A[0-9a-f]{32}" path step, just replace the prefix with
any other replica and retry. Odds are 5:8.

So find the reference cited above under
http://login.softeyes.net/Ad60e3fb123a79b2e5128915116b288f7/index.html/
or it's alternatives while I'm fixing the DNS etc.
@Ian Grigg and Allison Stellíng: the same applies to the not-so-private message I just sent out minutes before the disaster happend. Find the "one-pager"-message wrt. system theory under hash code: A5ae3c14013b6fe38b4aa66a2697e097f that would be e.g. http://login.softeyes.net/A5ae3c14013b6fe38b4aa66a2697e097f or http://peanut.softeyes.net:7080/A5ae3c14013b6fe38b4aa66a2697e097f [the latter being a plug computer at home only].
I just wanted to add a forgotten note beneath the T&C DISCLAIMER http://cl.softeyes.net:8080/A5ae3c14013b6fe38b4aa66a2697e097f/Systems%20in%20Genetic%20Autopoesis
This: "The hypothesis wrt. cancer would be that the strict rule
*no communication along the diagonal* where shortcut.
Leading into a 'thermodynamic chaos'."
When those three peers disappeared.
## The Needs - Short Term
To fix the case I rather urgently need to find at least two
locations, where I dare to replicate my notes wrt. to my personal
privacy. One already secured; so one more whom I can trust
not to embarrass me by leaking info taking as a "remembrance to
myself". Preferable outside Germany.
## Minimum requirements
BALL became a bit like the Swiss-army knife wrt. small scale
ISP needs not having a solutions widely deployed for a reason.
For operation it needs to bind to a port at the moment.
Run as some isolated user it needs to be able to maintain the
contents of one directory.
## Participate - Long Term
The more parties joining the network, the better it should help
with privacy, safety and autonomy.
### Regarding the Healthiness
So far we had
♣: AMD64, i386, ARM
♠: Chicken, Rscheme
♡: FreeBSD, Linux
♢: GPL, BSD
for symbols see A5ae3c14013b6fe38b4aa66a2697e097f , the
"not so private" draft message.
Thanks for your time.
