'''Anatomic P2P''' is a [[decentralized|decentralised]] [[peer-to-peer]] network based on the [[BitTorrent (protocol)|BitTorrent]] protocol. All [[software]] that forms a part of Anatomic P2P is licensed under the [[GNU General Public License]]. Anatomic P2P consists of various scripts and applications, including the '''tracker (or node) script''', '''supertracker (or supernode) script''', '''planter applications''' and the '''client'''. All the scripts are written in [[PHP]] but nevertheless would function in any other language. All the applications are written in [[Python (programming language)|Python]]. It is also open source.

== File Distribution ==

To distribute files on the network a user makes a '''torrent file''' as usual. This torrent file has to be planted on the network, which is the process of notifying the supernodes and nodes (by [[HTTP]]) that the file is going to be shared on the network. This can be done through a simple wizard. The Anatomic P2P network has backwards compatibility, which allows most other BitTorrent clients to use Anatomic P2P planted torrents.

== Client ==

The client is written in Python and [[PyGTK]] and this means it can run on [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[Linux]] or [[Mac OS X|Mac OS X (with X server)]]. The client was based on [[BitTornado]]. A [[deprecated]] [[command-line]] client is also available. The client supports torrents using a single tracker or torrents planted on the Anatomic P2P Network.

== Network ==
The anatomic uses a series of data sharing [[Node (networking)|nodes]] and [[supernode (networking)|supernodes]] (also known as supertrackers) to share files. Nodes on the Anatomic P2P network are modified '''BitTorrent trackers''' written in [[PHP]]. The supernodes contain an index of the torrents that are being shared on the nodes. The nodes are able to share user data in a process called '''peer-sharing'''. Therefore the network is decentralised since there is no central point in the network.

== Status ==
There have been no new posts on the Anatomic homepage since October 2005. There is no forum there. There is a forum on Anatomic's Berlios project page. http://developer.berlios.de/projects/anatomic/ But there has been no activity there since February 2005.
