[P2P-F] structured mapping of real p2p internet infrastructure

[Michel Bauwens]

Thanks to Giovanni for this overview,


Sepp, would you agree to work on some kind of overview mapping of these
different projects, in 2011, so that people could easily see what is going
on?

what kind of layered organisation schema could we use to make most sense of
it?

please also note http://p2pfoundation.net/Category:Standards and

infrastructure/index.htm:

" * YaCy is a search engine where many nodes share information to
build a distributed index.
* Status.Net is a microblogging system that allows users to run
their own Twitter-like site and federate selected streams with other
systems.
* Tahoe-LAFS is a high-redundancy file system that allows many
systems to contribute to an encrypted and distributed storage system
which nonetheless remains readable only to the owner of the files and
not to the owner of the storage
....
* Diaspora will hopefully be a social networking community where
users can run their own federated "pods", thus owning their personal
data and directly controlling what is shared with who.
* OpenPGP encryption is based on self-issued certificates which
gain authority as a result of a web of trust expressed via user-
maintained keyrings rather than a hierarchical certificate authority
system that can be centrally compromised.
* There is discussion and prototyping of a P2P DNS in progress,
without a root authority but rather with federated authority...

... * Various federated identity approaches already exist for
different use-cases, using mechanisms like OAuth and SAML.
* Various experiments in using P2PTV video streaming technology
exist, where the video stream is sourced from nearby users rather than
always from a central provider.
* And of course there are many P2P file distribution systems, as
well as the GNUNet framework project.."
