R5N DHT Block Types
This registry is for GNUnet DHT Block Types.
DHT Block Types types uniquely identify the different kinds of blocks that can be found in the GNUnet DHT.
This registry is used to ensure that the names and numeric values used to identify block types are uniquely defined and to allow DHT implementors to find out details about the respective semantics and human-readable syntax.
Policy
Developers working on GNUnet or packages based on GNUnet should feel free to extend this registry. Entries may be deleted if no code using them is still expected to be in production anywhere.
Updating the name of the package or subsystem is allowed provided that the code using the signature is being moved, as those fields are merely informational or used for code generation.
