I've settled on scurry. Those of you interested in seeing the cabalized "Works For Me Alpha" version can check out the Google Code page below. http://code.google.com/p/scurry/ Again, suggestions/comments/hatemail are encouraged. /jve On Mon, Oct 6, 2008 at 10:22 PM, Gwern Branwen <[EMAIL PROTEC

Hmm... I like Securry, but I'm going to go ahead and shorten it to Scurry. I also like HaPN a lot. Any suggestions why either of these would be better than the other? Perhaps a third party candidate would be more appropriate? So... 1. Scurry 2. HaPN 3. ??? (bah, sorry Brandon, reply all, reply

G'day all. Quoting John Van Enk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I'm working on a Haskell based VPN. I can't think of any good names, so I'm crowd sourcing it. The naming of code is a difficult matter, It isn't just one of your LAN party games; You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter

Ah, one more thing. It's not secure or distributed or any of the other things I said yet. It's going to be. :) The version I just posted is able to have two clients talk to each other (notice that neither of them is a server). I'll get the encryption and other details hammered in later. :) On Mon
