Re: [RAI] Draft on P2P architectures



Hi Enrico,

I do not want to go further into bittorrent terminology in the draft, but I will make the suggested change in order to address your original comment. I will be submitting a new revision of the draft shortly.

Thanks for your comments and for your quick response,

Gonzalo

"Note, however, that a particular swarm where most endpoints were
infrastructure nodes that had the complete file from the
beginning and, thus, acted all the time as seeders could not be
strictly considered a P2P system because most endpoints would
only be providing services, not requesting them."

Sounds good to me. Such infrastructure nodes are often referred to as
"seedboxes" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seedbox); you may want to
mention that as well.
