For you:

 gem install parkplace --source code.whytheluckystiff.net

Right now the parkplace app and the seeder are separate. The app has a built-in tracker, though.

 parkplace 55.55.55.55 3002
 parkseed 55.55.55.55 3003

A few tips:

• If you have a file saved at http://ip:3002/mp3s/tuff_ghost.mp3, you can request the torrent by adding a ”?torrent” to the end: http://ip:3002/mp3s/tuff_ghost.mp3?torrent
• If you can’t get BT clients to connect, be sure you specified a globally accessible IP back when you started things up.
• I think parkplace and parkseed have to be on the same IP.
• Simple tracker stats at http://ip:3002/tracker
• Park Place stores its stuff in ~/.parkplace by default.

Many thanks to William Morgan for his superb RubyTorrent lib. Official gems will be out soon. Help us test!
