AllPeers Goes Open Source

AllPeers is a Mozilla Plug-in that allows the users to have IM, File Sharing functionalities within the browser itself. It is developed in XUL. However they are not releasing the server version open source. All the clients would be connecting to the AllPeers server for file sharing etc.

I showed the app to couple of my friends. They like the idea, but want a cross platform solution which works across browsers and also in mobile because file sharing would be happening between devices also.. So Single Platform would be a difficult proposition.

With several solution providers competing for this space and releasing products in a flurry, things are getting interesting..
