Dead? https://github.com/triblerteam/libswift

Is it related to tribler? https://www.tribler.org/trac/wiki/whatIsTribler

It seems to be more active in the triler github pages: https://github.com/Tribler/libswift

Yup, seems closely related to Tribler. Same people, same research program under same funding.

Did this lead to anything or is this project abandoned? It looks very interesting, but the repo shows the latest work being a year ago.

I left the project in 2011. Heard some improvements were made since, but no great activity. synctext may know better.

My personal frustration point was the fact that data is moved within large corp data clouds these days. Customers are spoon-fed by HTTP. Seemingly, no niche to start from.

The page mentions that the project will hit a milestone in 2010.

I love UDP for sketchy business because nobody is looking for it.
