• Gopher over Yggdrasil

    By chance, I stumbled across this interesting proof of concept.
    "Yggdrasil access available

    Starting from today, the server has full access to the Yggdrasil
    network [0].

    Yggdrasil is a proof-of-concept about a fully end-to-end encrypted ipv6
    network. It ressemble a VPN, in that traffic is send encrypted over the
    wire to the remote host. However, it's neither a hub and spoke
    topology, nor a mesh network. There is a full routing protocol (using
    spanning tree technique), meaning that you get routed through nodes
    just like on the internet."

    Trivia for the day: Yggdrasil was the name of the company that
    developed the last releases of the Arena web browser (also
    supporting NNTP, FTP, and Gopher): gopher://gopherpedia.com/0/Arena%20%28web%20browser%29

    I'm assuming there's no relation.
