After smashing my head into a wall for two weeks wondering why I couldn’t connect to JXTA rendezvous peers correctly, it turns out that everyone is having the same problem.
Getting very frustrated with this, I’m thinking of pushing out the user interface as a seperate package and implementing a Direct Connect protocol backend with it. If nothing else, it’d be a decent client for Linux, but it would also allow other developers to play with and tweak the UI while I (or other people) worked on the decentralized backend (whether it’s JXTA or not).
Sometime after my two exams over the next two weeks.
