a3284642 d669ef764f increase POW when resending objects
Automatically increase defaultpayloadlengthextrabytes when resending objects to get higher priority in the object inventories of other clients. In this way, since class_receiveDataThread.py has also been patched to order the inventory by POW strength, only low POW "spamers" will be denied service when the network is overloaded because clients trying to originate legitimate messages will automatically compute a increasingly stronger POWs until distinguishing themselves as more worthy of the network's limited resources.

PyBitmessage

Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.

Development

Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first solicit feedback on the DevTalk pseudo-mailing list: BM-2D9QKN4teYRvoq2fyzpiftPh9WP9qggtzh
