FeedTree Web Proxy Description

Rather than develop a fully-featured feed reading application as a front-end for FeedTree, we chose to build an HTTP proxy which can be used with any desktop RSS Reader. Here's How It Works: the proxy application joins the FeedTree network and waits for an RSS reader to request a conventional feed via HTTP. When this occurs, the proxy instead substitutes the most up-to-date FeedTree version of the feed, including all updates received from other peers. This way, every RSS client can take advantage of FeedTree's bandwidth savings and instant updates. Running the proxy: In order for the proxy to connect to the Pastry peer-to-peer network which supports FeedTree, your host will need one of the following: * a fully routable Internet address (that is, it's not behind a NAT or firewall), or * a port-forward set up on your NAT/FW for port 29690, TCP and UDP If you go the port-forward route, the software will automatically Detect this and sniff out your external IP. (These requirements are essentially equivalent to the demands of any other current peer-to-peer system; if you've ever set up your computer for a p2p application, the FeedTree setup is analogous. See also the FAQ.) To run the proxy for the first time: * Download and Extract the distribution archive for your platform. * Configure your news reading software to use the FeedTree proxy; see ProxySetup. * Start the proxy application. o On Windows, open the FeedTreeProxy.exe program. o On Mac OS X, open the FeedTree Web proxy.app program. o Linux users can open the ftproxygui.jar file from a graphical desktop environment.
