-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 | Is there a design document on this DHT-like thing?
Yes, there are multiple documents on different technical levels. The first is my GSoC 2007 application which contains the general idea, some pre-studies, and a brief security discussion; however, the design as described there has slightly changed while writing the specification and implementing it, so it is only about 90 % accurate: http://www.uni-bamberg.de/fileadmin/uni/fakultaeten/wiai_lehrstuehle/praktische_informatik/Dateien/Forschung/Tor/loesing-distributed-storage.pdf Then, proposal 114 contains a more accurate description of the design as it is implemented now, but with fewer explanations: https://tor-svn.freehaven.net/svn/tor/trunk/doc/spec/proposals/114-distributed-storage.txt The relevant parts of the proposal are also included in rend-spec.txt: https://tor-svn.freehaven.net/svn/tor/trunk/doc/spec/rend-spec.txt Just in case you need something more citable: I'm currently writing a paper about it (and some other stuff). If you like, I could send you the submitted version (as soon as it is submitted) via private e-mail. If you have comments on any of these documents, please feel free! Hope this helps! - --Karsten -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHnksW0M+WPffBEmURAraxAKCT6X4z+tFOGSRcD3xN9QHfuqmqxwCgh4KF 3D97PHXQr8YFqv9eG1jzhBE= =mb7t -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
