GitTorrent: collaborative git repository distribution across the Internet

This is technically interesting, but I like the friction (small as it is) of forcing a software project to maintain a Web site. It may encourage people to think before forking, and a well-maintained Web site shows that someone somewhere is at least minimally committed to the project.

I was wondering when this would happen. Hopefully it will work ;)

Hopefully this could be used to make an alternate, resource-less, internet. If the gpg signing can ensure enough security, web developers won't need host servers (to an extent) any more. Certainly not if they are just serving static pages.
