Yes good feature request. My approach with Livecode and p2p is not to implement everything in Livecode. If we did that we would be back to the same problems we have with Livecode and the web stack - I want to integrate the new p2p tools into the Livecode tool chain using a combination of command line, C/C++/etc Livcecode Builder extensions, and/or REST calls to a p2p server running on localhost.
By the way I think I'm not paying enough attention to the Forum's - there is an API / Livecode stack for interfacing with information there? Also do we have a chat / irc channel or equivalent? Not the lovely chatrev - something that developers in other languages can easily hop into and out of?
