BitTorrent DHT

I am the author of the DHT library used by the Transmission, Shareaza and STorrent BitTorrent implementations.

You may get the last version by doing

git clone https://github.com/jech/dht.git

Released versions are in my download area.

This is a non-standard implementation of the DHT that is optimised for maximising variety of the returned nodes, and is therefore suitable for bootstrap nodes.

You may get the last version by doing

git clone https://github.com/jech/dht-bootstrap.git

Released versions are in my download area
