    P2P framework

    Hi All,

    I am looking for a networking (p2p, if you like) framework with Python
    bindings. Requirements are very basic - a node should be able to:
    o join/leave the network (perhaps with some auth. mechanism, but not
    essential at this stage)
    o broadcast a message to other nodes
    o communicate with another node on the network

    Basically, something like Sun's JXTA (www.jxta.org) would be more than
    sufficient. They do have a Python bindings project (jxtapy.jxta.or g) but
    that seems dead and I'd rather avoid using Jython for the time being.

    All and any advice appreciated.

    Boris

          If you want a relatively small number of nodes, Jabber might work here.
          "Broadcasti ng" would be by creating "chat rooms", then all messages sent
          to the address representing the chat room go to all members. This will
          eventually bog down if you have too many entities in that room.
          Communication with other entities is straighforward; to shuffle around
          large hunks of data use Out Of Band connections (i.e., you set up a direct
          socket).

              Thanks to those who replied. I am currently also looking into Spread.
