A bit brainstormed for the moment ;)

  • Designed for LAN usage (full trusted peers)
  • Efficient (very low cpu usage)
  • Distributed download (multi peer downloading and no central server)
    • Optimized for speed (quicker seed first)
    • Rarest parts first
    • Fixed part size (2^24 B = 16 MB) hashed with SHA1. Used to control the integrity of parts and to identify a file. A file is identified by the concatenation of all the SHA1 of all its parts.

  • There is a general chat
  • Multicast UDP for services discovering (maybe UPNP)

    • A window to view the current downloads (leechage) and one for the current uploads (seedage)
    • A window for the chat
