    49To decouple the build master and build slave, Bitten defines an application-level protocol on top of the meta-protocol BEEP (Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol, [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3080.html RFC 3080]). BEEP was chosen because it provides peer-to-peer communication (so that both the client and the server can initiate exchanges), and because of its relative simplicity compared to protocols such as XMPP.
