The P2PP has some very distinct features and I could not find them in
Reload-03. P2PP is not listed in the References.

If and how the features of P2PP have been merged, a list would be most
helpful. 
Also a discussion if/when some P2P features could not be merged. 
This is important to a number of people who have implemented P2PP or may
be planning or contemplating to do so.

Thanks, Henry

I'm not a P2PP author, but I hope you won't mind if I respond.

As you know, architecturally P2PP and RELOAD were actually very
similar, with quite similar feature sets. Even so, it's pretty hard to
merge all the words piecewise so we ended up starting with the RELOAD
text and trying to make sure that all the functionality in P2PP that
wasn't in RELOAD (unstructured DHTs, hop-by-hop reliability,
diagnostics, etc.)  got merged in. So, I think the more important
question here is whether we lost important P2PP functionality in the
merge. I think the answer to that is "no".

Best,
