A month or so ago some of the FreePastry folks contacted us at
LimeWire about our RUDP implementation to see how they could use it,
which led to us decoupling the RUDP implementation from the rest of
the code.  Right now it's a separate component called 'rudp' (and
depends on a few other LW components: 'nio', 'common', etc..), but it
has a pluggable message implementation.  That means it'd be relatively
trivial to implement messages that conform to STUN instead of
Gnutella.  The address discovery and NAT punching are left up to the
implementor to plugin -- the component is purely for a reliable UDP
transfer.  I'm not as up-to-date on STUN as I should be, but is it
intended for a reliable UDP stream also?  If so, it would be a really
neat/fun project to work on.

Just a quick note that the LimeWire address discovery code only relates to
STUN in the loosest sense possible.  They both discover your public address,
but that's about where the similarities end.  The wire protocols are
completely different, with LimeWire using a series of Gnutella messages and
with STUN using, well, STUN.
