[stale]

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

So, is this implemented or not? (Asking because it says "closed this as completed")
If not then it's kinda weird that this bot can just come around and close issues like on a whim.

I'm not saying that it must be done quickly (because i already appreciate and respect all the work that has already been done), but this is something that would be useful, and the most important thing for this is to not close this on a whim.
So ok, if it's closed because stale, then i probably should subscribe to this issue to then leave comments like "it's still a problem".

This most probably wasnt implemented, just the faulty bot closed it as completed.

The issue should be reopened and a label added that stops it from autoclosing it, and the bot should be fixed to close stale issues with the "not planned" status (though this latter thing probably does not depend on arvidn).

@arvidn: Can you reopen this ticket?

[mpeter50]

If you read this, I think it would be worth to consider reopening it, as the comments and some reactions to them this year indicate interest in the feature.

first draft: #7831

[Neustradamus]

@zzzi2p: The @arvidn PR has been merged:

• implement i2p_pex, peer exchange support for i2p torrents #7831

It is good for PEX now?

I2P BitTorrent details:

• https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent

What is missing to have a perfect BitTorrent and I2P support now?

@arvidn: Can you check DHT?

• Support for DHT and PEX with I2P #7408

Thanks in advance.

Not up to me to declare it good or offer advice on perfection. I assume you all are testing and looking for i2p_pex messages in and out, to snark and bigly. If somebody wants me to get on a torrent and do some snark logging to verify, find me on irc2p #i2p-dev.

DHT is 10x or 100x harder, you can't make it happen by bugging people.
