[Opensim-dev] Expanding the P2P approach

[Shun-Yun Hu]

Hello all,

I'd like to ask the same questions :)

But besides server discovery, I think another interesting question is
whether content streaming or even game state management / dissemination can
be done in a P2P fashion (http://ascend.sourceforge.net/P2P-3Dstreaming/).
I'm curious what are the developers' view on this?
