Intel, still intent on providing developers with some basic foundation technology for peer-to-peer networking, has delivered its second set of software development tools for Microsoft users. It hopes the Peer-to-Peer Accelerator Kit for Microsoft .NET will spur the development community into building P2P Web services products.
The move makes it clear what side Intel is supporting in the Web services battle, and in what direction it expects P2P technology to develop. It doesn't look as if the company will support any non-Microsoft Web services efforts, either in the current product line or future ones.
