That was my gut reaction, too. 

Especially the “we brand” part. 


I thought about using plain http (POST) as transport layer, so the basic model 
could stay the same, because I know how much effort went into finetuning and 
testing the advanced features in Gnutella. 

And I just realized, that even in that I wasn't clear enoug - and lost focus 
(I forgot to clearly say up front “this is less efficient than Gnutella, so I 
think it's useful mostly for specific applications which benefit from additional 
easy to use flexibility”). 

Best wishes, 
Arne
