The twisterd is already ported to android and it works solid (some strategy is required to putting it to sleep so it doesn't burn the battery, but this is very minor). windows port of twisterd also works solid (i've already provided virtual images preconfigured to perform cross-compilation). same for mac port. this is definitely not an issue, but if one wants to reimplement the whole thing... i'd never try to stop him ;-) > May I ask: is there any plan to extend the DHT with some sort of Pub/Sub, > I've never thought of that, so from my part, no plans. > and with the NoStore BEP for mobile DHT nodes to indicate they shouldn't > route or be contacted? > Is there such BEP for bittorrent? > Performance and speed are crucial for a microstatus network, but > preserving bandwidth and battery are crucial for mobile users.

I think that not joining DHT for storage must be easy (from a cursory thinking, i don't know if any extension would be necessary). Then there is the issue of downloading the whole blockchain, we may surely do better for mobile. regards, Miguel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "twister-users" group.
