==== Description: ====
We are a small team who want to develop a game engine based on peer-to-peer
tech. The main idea behind is to create tools capable of interactions between
existing worlds and games on internet. We will start with little prototypes in
Python and XMPP. We will probably move to C++ later. Though we have just a
little bibliography, few references and no code at this time, we are being
encouraged in our idea. Our approache is based on some already existed
algorithms as well as on our "now-how" that we would like to realise. Our
another aim is to attract researchers, developers, testers and everybody else
interested. Here are some links to packages, source or documentation we need
more investigate :

        A forum post about a peer-to-peer game engine, but when I checked the
project website, it was only about a physic engine

        An interesting request in a database with some research papers on
peer-to-peer game engine

        An interesting community, and projects, who have surely a lot to teach 
to
our team
