sadly I believe that relies on special software bridges or gateways to talk to "true bittorrent networks".

Vuze already has a supporting plugin, and there's been talk for Transmission to include it. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that if 1 person has a compatible client it acts as a bridge connecting the two types of swarms via DHT!
