The 16-bit checksum needs to be reverse-engineered in order to make a
working MP2P client. This hasn't been done yet, so all this project has
produced is a Wireshark dissector.
I recently attended a presentation about neural networks and the claim was
that they can be trained, given a set of inputs and desired outputs. This
may be able to crack the 16-bit checksum, since it is trivial to capture
large amounts of input packets with their checksum fields (which would be
the desired output of the net). I don't know much about this, so I'm filing
this bug to keep track of this insight.
