That's exactly correct. It's funny, cause scheduler activations is the first phrase that came to mind when I read the post, and I go: "I wonder if someone made a comment about that".
Sometimes I think that VM hypervisor's could duplicate the scheduler activations idea and allow the hypervisor to "take a group of CPUs and hand them over to another Guest VM" when the VM indicates that it needs more (or needs less).
With all the rise of VM tech, maybe they'll get it right this time =)
In fact, the lack of such seems to be shooting facebook in the foot. Why doesn't facebook have a peer-approved petitioning process to allow people to join facebook networks?
I can count several different associates with dormant facebook accounts whom, if given the chance to be "rallied into" a particular facebook network by other facebook users, would gladly use the website (and benefit from the private, social network).
+1 to that. Freenet is becoming quite mature.

What's the difference between this and what google is already doing? Except google's doing it for free.
