Thank you for all your comments!
I think I'll be looking at Vertex because I also need the actual UDP
hole-punching - the whole Vertex solution.
My dream or idea is to have p2p file sharing with webdav and real
mounted file systems on *NIX and Windows.
So I can "export" e.g. my /home/peter/projects writable to my other
machines as "projects", and /home/peter/public_ro as "public" read-only
to Fred, Sally and Alice.
I import Paul's "jokes" share as /mnt/p2pdav/paulsJokes, and Sandy's
"pics" share as /mnt/p2pdav/sandy/pics. And then access these files as
network drives.
Possibly later have /home/peter/projects be automatically synchronized
between all my machines.
Thats the basic idea anyway.

Well, this looks like the right fit for me. I realize this project is
not small, but it is an itch I've had for a long time, and it needs
scratching!!! But it is a personal-free-time project, so we'll see how
fast it goes... :-)
Sincerely,
Peter
