None of the systems you named fit what I described, which is a
network of explicit peering (each node chooses and cooperates with
peers), using rsync to propagate multi-media hypertext. Period.

Has anyone explored a new approach to multi-media hypertext -- one
not
tied to centralized servers -- along the following, simple lines:
Such a system seems like an obvious step and a timely one to me,
but
is
anyone already doing it? Would anyone like to start now?
there are indeed, Thomas. FileMax, Holochain, Threefold,
P2pFoundation, Bitchute, gnunet, these are all efforts with varying
success and focus.
technically speaking, true peer distrbuted services are insanely
hard
to get right (and even harder to convince people to adopt). some
people have worked on this for fifteen years and yet there is no one
clear "winner".
whilst i do not wish to discourage you or others, i would not want
you
to waste time duplicating something that will suck your time and
energy
needlessly from other equally important (unrelated) tasks.
to ensure that you (and others) focus on *useful* tasks, i have a
suggestion: do the research and put in a request for funding to
NLnet.
rhe reason i say that is not just because it will give you the
financial resources to see through your goal, NLnet backs well
researched *non duplicated* efforts and will help you by confirming
whether there are existing projects out there. you can start by
checking on their website under "projects" and may find one already
in
progress to which you can usefully contribute.
