Hello Gnutella fans,

I want to inform you that I have begun yesterday the implementation of
the DHT for gtk-gnutella, in a way that I hope will be compatible with
LimeWire's.

The Kademlia implementation itself is complex but should be rather
straightforward.

The real challenge will be in areas where LimeWire has not fully
documented what they are doing: who publishes what, when, and in which
format.  However, that is "user-level" stuff, so to speak, and my aim for
now is to be able to implement the DHT core correctly and to see how it
behaves in terms of traffic and resource consumption (disk, memory, CPU).

Cheers,
Raphael
