Our plan is to rename DHT into a Discovery service and get rid off Google Protobuf and start using common P2P protocol for peer discovery

@akarasulu common protocol for all types of communication between peers and nodes. Right now we have three different protocols to talk to p2p clients, p2p proxies and to DHTs.

So this is a kind of consolidation and simplification cleanup?

Not only this. We also moving towards the integration of DHT into p2p clients, so clients will participate as discovery services too.
