Limewire Peer Server and metasearch
 

What do you think about the Limewire peer server?
Is it an interesting new road for peer 2 peer networking?
Others will follow?
Or just an easy way to set up Tomcat+Poolman+JDBC access to Mysql or other db's?

What do you mean with 'peer server'?

Look at www.limewire.com !

Another great step forward IMHO! We still haven't discovered/realised the real potential of Gnutella and distributed networks IMHO.

The server is a great idea! And I'm working on a server too actually. It will be very useful for distro sites, but I know of several scenarios where it would be helpful in "closed" Gnutella networks such as a corporation.

Hi, I agree that it will be a reat improvement, but have you tried to use it? I've installed it but the docs are very poor!
- cultiv8r is it possible to take a look at your server? Or it will be closed source?
Thanks

I've got a number of clients lined up for release. Unfortunately, none of them are public just yet, just for a select few users. Its done this way to 1) keep it a nice surprise :D 2) ensure that I'm not going to release something that might affect the GNet in a bad way. I'll keep you posted, or you can visit www.cultiv8r.com to see if anything has happened yet :)

Thanks, I'll look at your site quite often!
Maybe I'll email you, if you don't mind.

Sure, feel free to e-mail.
