1 From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
4 n 1: an overwhelming number or amount; "a flood of requests"; "a
5 torrent of abuse" [syn: {flood}, {inundation}, {deluge},
7 2: a heavy rain [syn: {downpour}, {cloudburst}, {deluge},
8 {waterspout}, {torrent}, {pelter}, {soaker}]
9 3: the rising of a body of water and its overflowing onto
10 normally dry land; "plains fertilized by annual inundations"
11 [syn: {flood}, {inundation}, {deluge}, {alluvion}]
12 v 1: fill quickly beyond capacity; as with a liquid; "the
13 basement was inundated after the storm"; "The images
14 flooded his mind" [syn: {deluge}, {flood}, {inundate},
16 2: charge someone with too many tasks [syn: {overwhelm},
17 {deluge}, {flood out}]
18 3: fill or cover completely, usually with water [syn:
19 {inundate}, {deluge}, {submerge}]
21 `deluge' is a bittorrent client.
26 I suggest using cabal sandbox.
31 2. cabal install --only-dependencies
32 3. cabal build # binaries in ./dist/built/deluge/*
37 - Become more profient with Haskell.
38 - Implement something non-trivial with Haskell (crypto, file operations, network
39 operations, concurrency, bit twiddling, DHT).
40 - Follow the spec. (<https://wiki.theory.org/BitTorrentSpecification>)
41 - Easy for newbies like me to read and understand along side the spec.
42 - doctest and quickcheck tests.
43 - Follow Haskell Style Guide (<https://github.com/tibbe/haskell-style-guide/blob/master/haskell-style.md>)
48 - decode torrent files (bencoding)
49 - talk to the tracker and get the peer list
55 - Get the file download working in the simplest possible way.
56 - Concurrency (threads per peer)
57 - other advanced features of Bit Torrent (like DHT).
