    • .piece file to store incoming blocks

  • Wire protocol encryption (?)

  • IP-filter

    • Not internal. A callback, perhaps.

  • scripts/gui-client.pl?

    • very light gui example using perl/TK

  • Internal bans for 'bad' peers

    • Penalty (and eventual ban) for peers who always seem involved with bad pieces

  • Full Multi-tracker spec compliance

  • PoCo::BitTorrent

    • Not to be confused with the other PoCo::BitTorrent

  • Params::Validate?

  • DHT/PEX

  • UDP trackers

Duke Nukem: Forever

  • perlcritic severity=stern

  • non-blocking hash_check()

    • This is actually possible now with a bit of work.

  • N::B::Lite - bare bones client (nowhere near ::Tiny)

    • Single class

    • No extensions

    • Trimmed API
