Hello Peng, ... It is unfortunate that there is no lifetime attached to the generated security tokens. I guess it's too late to change that now, since the ...
Hi all, I have a suggestion for using the DHT to find download sources. Since it works differently to a standard Kademlia lookup I thought I'd ask for comments...

Search results could carry "notes" metadata where users can add distributed notes to files - to search results as well as to shared files. I can think of two...
