Will Squid or anything similiar and open source ever support caching P2P?

It would be quite helpful but likely very complicated. The bandwidth
savings could be huge and I think that is what Squid is all about. But
there are also the legal issues.

I think cachepliance works like http://www.peribit.com, it caches
``packets'' the technology peribit uses is MSR ``applies pattern-matching
techniques used in genetic research to identify and eliminate repetitive
data traffic'', so everything will be cached. Totally different
with squid and other
A company called joltids makes a product called p2pcache that acts as a
cache for fastrack based p2p traffic...
I suspect the diversity of p2p platforms the relative size of the files
and the legal ambiguity of turning around and offering materials may
potentially be unlawful, the makes caching
What you dont realize that that the majority of the traffic with p2p is *not*
the downloads themselves but instead is the 100s of clients/servers
contacting each other and exchanging directory information. The "chatter" is constant
and unrelenting. Caching p2p content is problematic in more ways
No offense, but could you guys take this discussion out of this list
please?
It is interesting, but IMHO, it eally doesn't belong here.
Thanks,
