Shouldn't rTorrent be listed with the libtorrent based clients instead of on its own? According to the rTorrent article, it uses libtorrent also. EricJ2190 ( talk) 17:41, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
This is a pretty shitty article and appears to just be a copy of David Harrison's livejournal blog about the dangers of PEX, rather than an actual, informative article. Someone needs to clean this shit up bad or just delete it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.203.216.146 ( talk • contribs)
It would also be useful to use a less technical language in the beginning of the article. I an not familiar with lots of the wording and did not get sufficient understanding. I would welcome a non-technical introduction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.28.213.50 ( talk) 14:35, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
I've reorganized the material, rewritten some paragraphs, tried to make the introduction less technical, and have removed the "inappropriate tone" tag that has been on this article since 2007.
I've added some material on PEX conventions but overall, the article still needs more material (see list at top of this Talk page). The section on DHT is still poorly written and its claims need citations to back them up.
I also think there should also be a short section on magnet. There is already a Wiki page on this ( Magnet URI scheme) but its relation to PEX should be explained, as there are about a thousand page hits on Google for "DHT/PEX/Magnet" and even those familiar with BitTorrent often don't know how DHT and Magnet actually relate to PEX.
