What do you think why this is called "handshaking"???

All clients which are in "actice" developement use 0.6! So tell me why they don´t work out a new protocol with all new features that "all" other clients can use them too?

This is improving the network!

Perhaps you can remeber as Xolox developed multi-source-downloads (the first Gnutella client), how angry Vinnie was that they are not in the GDF and share their ideas... and why does Vinnie don´t share HIS ideas? This is called promotion, now he can claim he has sha1 hashes and nobody else has...

Vinnie commercials interest have the highest priority and the network improvement, I mean the whole network not only a part of it, have only a low priority!

So tell me why there is NO cooperation?

Its easy... other non commercial developer have not the time and money to create the features in the same time - if Vinnie don´t share his ideas he have in several months a better client than all others, so now the majority of the users decide to use his client (and Limewire) - the others die... more user = more money!!!

But the other developer don´t care, they want to improve the network and share their ideas...

I have to repeat, why does Vinnie improve his own net and not GNUTELLA???

What he is doing, is creating a new own network! He talked over a year ago about creating his own network... do you really think this is the last step?
