Dear p2p-hackers,

For an application I`m wrtting I miss two features.

1) The app needs to be able to locate among the remaining running
applications (same app running around the world, ie app234 and app745) one
that it`ll act as partner to solve the task.
2) After this task is done among other things I have a bunch of data (small
volume) that belong to each node that is affected by the fact they worked
together. So stat stat234 is changed and stat745 is also changed. Those two
sets of data need not be lost and update any previous version that was
around.
3) If during thet work one of the peers is gone (app234) then app745 needs
to be able to update both sets of data (I suppose something like some time
must be waited in order of this set of data be allowed. Maybe app234 have
some time to inform he is still present and this update needs to be
validated by it. If app234 is really gone then after some time the data
updated by app745 (both sets) is valid. I'm afraid that I'll have a hard
time on this topic not being exploitable so, for now, it's desirable but not
needed.

I think I can use DHT to solve 1st task and 2nd task can be solved by
freenet (or similar) by publishing new version of both data.

Its desirable (but not mandatory) that only app234 can be shown as app234.
Also I do not want any central controller, directory, signer or anything.

Not a good example but close to is as follow:

Two person that want to talk. One needs to be able to find the other in
other to directly talk to. The data changed could be something like people
I've talked to list.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance,
Jacques
