Peer 2 Peer Distribution

So after my previous post, I did start (and mostly finished) a python app engine torrent server using memcache. The main thing left to do is sort out the compressed view… I’ve been very busy (more about that later), with a new project.

I’ve used a cross between a 2 existing python code bases (neither of which I can remember at the moment, will find them and include links later). The first was a memcache cut down version of the torrent protocal, the second was a fully fledged gql version. I’ve mixed the 2 together to make a full torrent server based on memcache.

Have a look at my github project page for the code base.

As soon as I get round to finishing it I will write a more detailed post!
