Maybe it would be useful to write a =E2=80=9CHow to implement a basic Gnute=

would it be to write a basic leaf-only servent?=20

I think these don=E2=80=99t have to exclude each other. Important is to sta=

I think these would be extremely valuable. I read some of the papers people=
=20
did using Phex, and they sound very useful:=20

Some examples (praise the wiyback machine!):=20

Also there was at least one paper on greedy routing for Gnutella.=20
