  Hello Jiří Hnídek, UDP is a security issue none the less. I would
like to understand more mesh networking protocols like rsync that is
extremely fast without the use of udp before i rewrite the verse in pure
python. Any information helps me along since i noticed there are a
plethora of open protocols to study

for implementing such module now. On the other side, anybody can
implement Verse Python module in pure Python, because specification of
protocol is described here:

don't see any security concern in module written in C using Python

in python, and needs python bindings (i believe) it implies security
holes. "wordpress joomla drupal" in ten years have over 300 security
breaches while python servers and cms like zope and plone *which the FBI
uses* only have 2-6 ii recall. So with all these protocols -tcp, udp,
ftp, sftp, pysftp, icmp, smpt, imap, all sorts of protocols to transfer
packet information, my confusion boils down to why for what, and wouldnt
it simplify life if we make a blender protocol with the old verse packet
structure that "excludes" any 3rd party language compatibility... My
worry is if we build a verse-uni verse future network, then all sorts of
operating systems and computing languages can corrupt the system with
poop scripts (i assume). I mean if we take a real moment to look at
blender, once it can boot off a hard drive without an operating system,
pure python, and you add a python web browser within blender, then the
practical use of a desktop operating system dissapears.. So it seems
obvious the future of blender is blending, SO WHY ARE WE BLENDING WHAT
IS NOT NEEDED. Pure python. We make snakes work, snakes dont make us
work (look at blend4web.com spent half a decade working blender into
java, when java is done for)
