Talk:Kad network

I think This article should have some more details on how the Kad protocol works... does Anybody have any idea?

The Kademlia article has some useful information on how it works.

I'm not sure it's possible to get a citation for the number of users. With no central server to keep track of these kinds of things, the best you can ever have is a rough estimate, is it not?

confusing link
The third external link for ML Donkey is extremely confusing and needs to be removed. The site has very similar looking page and one could be unaware of the moving to another domain until one looks at the address bar.

Explaining protocol
Maybe a section with how you can hook up Kademlia to your own Peer To Peer application will come usefull ;)

Kad is my anti drug

 * To ease file searching, some websites list the checksums of sought-after files in the form of an eD2k link. It is known that crawler of Figator.com is using Kad searches and results are included into their search database.

four clients or five?
The Clients sections says only four clients support Kad, but then lists five. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.215.216.23 (talk) 15:40, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Differences to BitTorrent DHT?
The Kad network seems pretty application agnostic. Why is BitTorrent not using the Kad network but its own (modified) Kademlia implementation (Mainline DHT) instead? What are the main differences between those two? --Tddt (talk) 02:50, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

Another article about a technocal term written in techy jargon which of of no use explaining a concept to us non-nerds, completely pointless! Wikinerds, please understand that an enyclopedia that a non-expert cannot understand is useless! 151.224.102.18 (talk) 13:00, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

Introduction date
The article should mention when started operating, seems like 2004 saw the first eMule with working access to the network. 155.210.238.19 (talk) 08:02, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
