He's some German guy always proposing we need this / we need that without the slightest clue what he was talking about.

I think he also had a freenet phase, when he told everyone that Gnutella should implement anonymity the way freenet did. He also failed to realize that that kind of anonymity freenet offers comes at a price. In case of freenet the price was being an inefficient piece of junk merely good enough to be used for small amounts of information.

The idea of freenet is that content will be cached by the network and that it will be purged from the network if it is not requested for a while. Now if you have many, many files the number of requests for less popular files will automatically approach zero and you will never be able to share some episodes of some 70's cartoon that get only one download request per day.
