While I agree on the networking front, with pluggable bidirectional networking impl that others can write, the DHT still has value.
I am familiar w/ the Beaker project and definitely appreciate all of y'all's work (I did a much smaller PoC back in the day [0] when I thought MaidSafe had legs). I also definitely understand/appreciate the simplicity of some of the hyperswarm code and also understand fears of overabstraction for external use cases.
