well. the first person who developed that concept is Alain Durand. In his
concept,
a tunnel broker receive requests from users and tunnels servers actually do the
tunnels. This model has been coded by Ivano and his friends. You probably
see his offer for his source code.
go get it!

What we implemented is more simpler: the same server is receiving the
requests from the users and make the tunnels to the clients.
We got request from many people to have our source code to setup servers in
the world. 
We have been very busy since Minneapolis but it is on our priority to
release the software.
in the mean time, we just add new client platforms and linux client is
going to be released soon.

So if you are interested in our "simpler" implementation, drop me an email
and I'll make sure you receive it
when it is released.

Regards, Marc.
