It looks really interesting, but I’m surprised at the amount of
complexity that goes into that. I had thought that just putting files by
key would be easier.
So even with this I still haven’t seen anything to date that’s
conceptually simpler than the Gnutella Download-Mesh for swarming
downloads.
Best wishes,
