Well, I must confess that when we wrote these ideas (in the GSoC ideas
page), the Set of Rules and the code were not so developed (we have keep
working in these aspects for a while) and yes, for that reason, at this
moment, they could be easy to address. However, these are still some open
issues that we should solve in both SoRs:

1. ACS should be improved because now: (1) peers must lost chunks in order
to receive less chunks and chunks never should be lost, and (2) those peers
that send more chunks are going to erase from their list of peers to the
peers that send less chunks if the "max_chunk_loss" parameter is not
defined properly. The behaviour of the ACS peers should not depend on this
parameter.

2. LRS only solves the chunks lost massively. Could we do something in the
case a peer lost only some chunks? (Please, remember that we must minimize
the latency of the protocol).

Of course.
