Thx master. Here the goals from my old suggestion:
- full HTTP alike connections, to achieve an easy parser
- straight and simple connection sheme, easy and fast
- very flexible desgin for later needs, avoiding a 0.8 in near future *g*
- don't hurt old v0.4 servants, let them still be operable
I won't argue anymore which handshake is more complex and why I don't like the name ultrapeers or the concept behind it. AFAIK the GDF still has no proposal for LAN auto configuration, UDP autofind or internationalisation/UNICODE, is the chat protocol documented meanwhile? v0.7 ideas are about half year old, meanwhile I prefer GNUXP's concept (ask GodXblue for details).
In the past I made suggestions and spend time to improve things and bringing new ideas from different file sharing systems, just take what you like. I found out other developers are not really interested in my experience or support (the friendly way of saying : I know I'm not welcome here). I would have appreciated if Gnutella would be more honest and more cooperative.
Happy developing.
