    No it was originally developed as a "regular" P2P application... a highly scalable way to download stuff.

    The first slashdot story on it was in March 2002, where its was used to distribute CodeCon 2002 .mp3s where Brian presented on bittorrent

    This is for CodeCon 2003:
    "CodeCon 2.0 is the premier event in 2003 for the P2P, Cypherpunk, and network/security application developer community.
    It is a workshop for developers of real-world applications with working code and active development projects."

    you get the idea...
    peek-a-booty (top 10 vaporware of 2001) was also presented at CodeCon 2002.

  2. Codecon archive with bittorrent by throwaway18 · · Score: 4, Informative · on Slashback: Taplight, Handheld, Samba
    Those of you who are interested in the development of peer to peer systems such as bittorrent may be interested in the Codecon conference which took place last month. There were some very interesting panels.

    Bram Cohen the author of bittorrent is also the main codecon organisner. The audio recording of the talks and panels at codecon can be downloaded with bittorrent. It maxed my downstream at 50KB/sec, someone else reported 200KB/s down.

  3. Codecon Conference - P2P programming by billstewart · · Score: 2, Interesting · on P2P Content Delivery for Open Source

    Codecon - www.codecon.info will be February 22-24 in San Francisco. It's a conference about writing code for applications like peer-to-peer and crypto (and crypto peer-to-peer, etc.), oriented towards authors presenting actual working demos. The program page has abstracts of the talks/demos. Many of these applications overlap some of the same space. One of the organizers is Bram Cohen, author of the BitTorrent P2P file distribution system (and one of the organizers of last year's conference), and the other is Len Sassaman, who does cryptographic remailers.
