[p2p-hackers] Opinions on JXTA2 -

[Shashi (MIT)]

Hi all

I was curious as to your thoughts on the JXTA platform. I am working
in designing a P2P application and I have heard some conflicting
thoughts on JXTA.

The contrarian viewpoint is that it is too complex and way too much
work to get something like a P2P app working. 'The solution being more
complex than the problem'
While there are simpler P2P frameworks available e.g. DirectConnect.

The pro viewpoint is JXTA's comprehensiveness and the one-stop
platform.  What are your thoughts?

thanks,
Shashi
