   from the practice-and-theory dept.
   nile_list writes "Edward Felten of the very fine [1]Freedom to Tinker
   has written a [2]15 line P2P program in Python. From the [3]post on
   Freedom to Tinker, "I wrote TinyP2P to illustrate the difficulty of
   regulating peer-to-peer applications. Peer-to-peer apps can be very
   simple, and any moderately skilled programmer can write one, so
   attempts to ban their creation would be fruitless." Matthew Scala, a
   reader of Freedom to Tinker, has responded with the [4]9 line
   MoleSter, written in Perl."
