SPRINT UPDATE

• We've run successfully an interoperability test between go-ipfs and node-ipfs, using the PING protocol. It works™
• Friedel is now helping node-ipfs land (woot! \o/), starting by adding tests.
• network-layer
  • [x] ton of discussions on defining how we are going to modularize (already following what was defined) the libp2p (see images below for future reference)
  • Peer routing
  • [x] standardise the interface for router components
  • [~] make kad-router. kbucket update/split works (with tests), dht registers on swarm, need to finish the peer query loop  - swarm
  • [x] add ability to open just connection (without a stream) (today!)
  • [x] add lastSeen https://github.com/diasdavid/node-ipfs-swarm/pull/6
  • [x] merged https://github.com/diasdavid/node-spdy-stream-muxer/pull/3
  • [x] merged https://github.com/diasdavid/node-ipfs-swarm/pull/5
• node-ipfs-api
  • [x] fix browserify transform problem https://github.com/ipfs/node-ipfs-api/pull/38

Discussion boards for libp2p components:

[ghost]

• ipfs repo config on the gateways is now managed by ansible. in the past we lost the private key of pluto, which won't happen again.
• neptune has been rebuilt
• the nginx-related ansible code got a good refactoring (CR needed)
• pinbot and metrics have been moved to a new host called scruffy (CR needed). that means we now have infrastructure stuff separate from gateway/bootstrap nodes
• did a bit more work on cjdns-discovery, but that's still WIP
• checked out other cjdns integration points with daviddias
• got the dmca blocklist daemon to work today
• battlemesh preparations and travels
• didn't get to writing down testnet stuff

This last week I worked on getting the ipfs http commands lib refactored and fixed up. We now have better reliability provided by the commands as they are now able to return errors after beginning a stream of data via http trailers. I implemented a --create option for ipfs patch, along with a moderate refactor of the involved code. Windows builds work again, although NAT traversal is iffy on the platform. we shipped 0.3.6! and it was awesome, but the webui was broken, so we fixed that and shipped 0.3.7. Since then, I implemented rabin fingerprinting chunking which I still need to address CR on. I also started working on implementing the mfs API to allow for a whole bunch of cool new apps to be built, including a dropbox-like app i'm writing in javascript. I learned a lot about javascript and I'm kinda getting the hang of how things work.
