Project 3: File Sharing with XML-RPC

This chapter’s project is a simple file-sharing application. You may be familiar with the concept of file sharing from such applications as the (in)famous Napster (no longer downloadable in its original form), Gnutella (see for discussions about available clients), BitTorrent (available from ), and many others. What we’ll be writing is in many ways similar to these, although quite a bit simpler.
