[p2p-hackers] p2p framework

[Greg Bildson]

You could build off the limewire.org open source code (currently down) or
off of the gtk-gnutella or gnucleus source.  You would want to form a
separate network since current vendors would consider alternate uses of the
existing network as pollution.

If you envisioned similar services as exist or extensions to the existing
services then this might make sense.  If you want something as a basis for a
new clean protocol, I might not recommend it since some aspects of the
protocol are a little ugly underneath the covers.  However, extension
mechanisms do for most message types.

Thanks
