Description:

   The Java Bittorrent API project aims at providing a simple and easy-to-use API
   for future work on Bittorrent protocol. It provides classes and methods that 
   permit to complete each step necessary to publish files and retrieve them 
   using the Bittorrent network.

   The goal is to provide any user the possibility to share files with other 
   people without having to bother too much.
   
   In this scope, this project propose a bittorrent tracker that can be run to 
   accept files for sharing. 
   This is part of the trackerBT.zip package. Unzip it and follow the instruction 
   in the corresponding README file to install it.

   Provided also is a bittorrent api that permit to publish files using 
   bittorrent protocol, as much as to download files from other people. 

   To publish files using bittorrent protocol, user have to follow these steps:
      - Create a new torrent file which will provide information about the 
        target files the user wants to publish and make available to others.
        This can be done by running the ExampleCreateTorrent program.
      - Publish this torrent file on a tracker so that other people can have 
        access to the desription of the target files and then be able to 
        download them. This is done running the ExamplePublish program.
      - Share the local target files to permit people to download files from
        local directory. This is done by running the ExampleDownloadFiles program.

   To download files from other people, user have to get the torrent file from 
   any tracker or web server and then run the ExampleDownloadFiles program.

   To have access to these classes and the corresponding instruction, unpack 
   the bitext.zip package and read the README file for further information

   Now enjoy the Java Bittorrent API
