Comment(by feynman):

 I just finished commenting/documenting the code and rewriting the
 protocol-spec.

 The lines in the protocol-spec and README file should all be wrapped at 80
 characters.

 Next I am going to start working on integration testing.

 My goals are:

 a) Ensure every byte that is sent is either received in order or dropped
 (if the recipient disconnected as data was being sent).

 b) Find the optimum bandwidth to allocate to each socket.

 The latter can be done by sending data at different rates from one hexchat
 instance and measuring the rate at which they are received by another
 hexchat instance. I can then plot the data and see if there is a well
 defined maximum on the receiving end.
