I think once we implement
https://gnunet.org/bugs/view.php?id=2564
namespace search will be at least as censorship-resistant as the current
keyword-based search.  The real issue is (as you mention) how to
communicate with the namespace owner to get him to update his index.
That ought to be rather tricky --- right now, one could publish
something under a publicly-known keyword encrypted only for the owner,
but that seems somewhat unreliable / inefficient.  More importantly,
there is no software support for this --- not for encrypting a message
to a namespace owner, not for decrypting it, not for really maintaining
a large namespace with any decent convenience (LRN: gnunet-fs-gtk has an
open bug for you there...).


Aside from this, I should mention to SMoratinos that gnunet-java ---
while having a pretty complete set of GNUnet APIs --- lacks support for
the file-sharing API itself AND we have no plans to fix that at this
point (the API itself is just a bit too complex for the envisioned scope
of gnunet-java).  So while you can do encrypted P2P communication,
multicast, DHT, statistics, etc using gnunet-java, accessing our
file-sharing functions is still limited to C code. I'm just pointing
this out as it might seriously limit your ability to realize your vision.


Happy hacking!

Christian
