= Live Streaming =

LiveStreaming: everybody in the swarm is viewing the same content at the same time. 
Comparable to television channels or a webcam feed. Supported in Tribler as of July 2008, see [wiki:SwarmPlayer]

== Planning before end of 2008 == 

 - Operational [wiki:Give-To-Get]: core P2P video engine
 - [wiki:BarterCast]: link with sharing ratio enforcement
 - [wiki:SelectiveSeeding]: seeding policy
 - [wiki:Tribler5/Vision visualize] your current score
   * Status and howto improve it
   * Allies + ratio and history
   * Recent helped peers
   * Pretty view of swarm, give-to-get connections

== Give-To-Get ==

 - assume some peers are malicious, but the majority follows protocol
 - unchoke best neighbours
 - based on recent behaviour (forwarded bytes in last 10 seconds)
 - optimistic unchoke (every 20 seconds):
   * kick worst 4th unchoked neighbour (whom is not locked for ratio repay)
   * fill neighbourhood with:
       - 33% best supertrust peer (has best sharing ratio)
       - 33% if any: with you have debt (worst ratio to you)
       - 33% random
