Privacy-Preserving Filesharing Track: Testnet v0.2
1. Large Data Transport Layer for Mix
Mixnets work on small, fixed packet sizes. They also assume some level of symmetry in traffic sent and received. We need to haul larger files - small request, large response, large data. This is about building an abstraction on top of Mix to enable that.

2. Anonymous DHT Queries
Privacy-preserving filesharing requires DHT queries to be anonymous. As a first attempt, we want to unlink querying nodes. This deliverable should provide a way to do that.

3. Anonymous Downloads
Using the results from (1), we want to adapt our revamped download protocol to run over a mixnet. At first, we will only deal with making downloads unlinkable; i.e., nodes downloading a file should not be linkable to the content they are downloading. Providers remain exposed.
