It's notably not a shortest path routing scheme, with the goal of scalable name-independent routing on dynamic networks with an internet-like topology. It's named Yggdrasil after the world tree from Norse mythology, because that seemed like the obvious name given how it works. -For a longer, rambling version of this readme with more information, see: [doc](doc/README.md). -A very early incomplete draft of a [whitepaper](doc/Whitepaper.md) describing the protocol is also available. +More information is available at .
