Kenosis

Kenosis: "Kenosis is a fully-distributed p2p RPC system built on top of XMLRPC. Nodes are automatically connected to each other via a Kademlia-style network (http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/529075.html) and can route RPC requests efficiently to any online node. Kenosis does not rely on a central server - any Kenosis node can effectively join the network ('bootstrap') from any connected node. More about Kenosis can be found here: http://kenosis.sf.net This is Kenosis-enabled BitTorrent. Using Kenosis, we've eliminated the tracker as a central point of failure for BitTorrent downloads. Kenosis-enabled BitTorrent is 100% backwards compatible with existing BitTorrent clients."
