ah, cool – webfs looks neat.

Also worth knowing: `python -m SimpleHTTPServer` will serve the current working directory.

It may be that they've made changes to the interface. If you or someone else writes a patch I'll probably incorporate it.

RE the trackback, are you sure you put in the trackback URL, not the URL to the blog post? Those are basically never the same thing.

Comment on BitTorrent Monitization Proposal by Yoz

This sounds like Vuze's model (kind of).

There are quite a few BT trackers that rely on some kind of authentication, especially those that use it to track sharing ratios amongst users. (I'm not sure if they're simply checking IP address or doing something more clever like custom per-user .torrent files; either way the BT client itself never auths)

Trouble is, I'm not sure who your scheme is for, nor do I see Big Media claiming that online distribution is hard (there are enough CDNs out there that'll take care of it for you). The hard thing is getting people to pay for it, and the way that iTunes et al succeed (those of them that do, anyway) is through really good user experience – something that standalone BitTorrent has trouble providing. And that's where Vuze is trying to fit in.
