I've renamed it to "Bitcoin Developer Specification" a little while ago.
Maybe it should rather be named "Bitcoin Developer Reference"? Either
way, creating a good description of Bitcoin is an incremental process
and there are certainly many quirks I'm not aware of. I hope that
together we will soon be able to fill in the missing gaps.
Warm greetings,

Firstly, it is an excellent document, and it should be useful in
educating others.
I do agree that "specification" is not a good word to use.

Well it's a finite code base so yes, it should be possible.
The only problem is .... so far everyone who tried it, didn't succeed :)
Heck even people who tried to reimplement it by reading the code keep
getting subtle details wrong.
So it should definitely be possible one day, assuming Bitcoin doesn't
become radically more complex, but it's a minefield.

at the end of the day it's opensource so it could always be improved via pull
request on github.
Krzysztof, in that regard I would add a licence file to make
integration of changes
made by others smoother.

just out of curiosity, do you think it will be possible to create any
other proper
protocol specifications rather than the C++ original?

Ah, that's great. Still, it would be good to be careful with the word

It has already been linked from the developer guide for quite a while,

Nice work, but please don't call it the "Bitcoin protocol spec". Your
document is not a spec. It is an attempt to describe in English the Bitcoin
protocol, but anyone who implemented it based on your description would get
it wrong. For example you didn't mention the SIGHASH_SINGLE bug and many
other important areas like the difficulty transitions are also left
unspecified.
As a loose description of the protocol for newbies it's an invaluable
resource and perhaps we should link to it from the developer guide. As
something that claims to be a specification it is quite possibly dangerous
- the only spec that matters is the C++ original.

many many thanks Krzysztof.
This was badly needed.
This is a way to get more people to understand
the whole system, hence increasing the number
of bitcoin devs on the long term.

There's a high level guide here:
https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide#p2p-network
It's not a protocol specification however, more a lay-of-the-land type
description. The protocol is not very complicated however. The wiki page
describes it adequately. It's basically just a framing mechanism with
excessively aggressive checksumming, a version handshake, an inventory
mechanism to cut down on bandwidth usage, the alerts, and that's about it.

There's this (not sure how complete it is):

Also there's a good introduction to technical details here:

I hope that is useful.

This is probably the best, most complete resource available for those who

I think it's great work and provides a good reference for those
who want to get some insight into Bitcoin's design.
Have you considered putting the document source under version control,
which may facilitate tracking future protocol improvements in the
document easily?

Dear all,
a while ago I've posted a work of mine, namely the Bitcoin Protocol
Specification,
that should by now ring a bell to some of you. Ever since I've received
plenty of
comments from Bitcoin Core developers, Bitcoin enthusiasts and many others.
For the encouraging words and improvement proposals I'm very grateful. I
tried
to incorporate to the best of my abilities and am happy to present a
revised version.
As before, it can be found under:
http://enetium.com/resources/Bitcoin.pdf
I hope it will prove useful to the community and thank in advance for
any further
improvement proposals.
Kind regards,
Krzysztof

Suggestion: maybe you want to write and post here a paragraph summarizing
the topic of your paper so people can know if they feel qualified and if
they need to review it from their interests.

Dear all,
I'd like to kindly ask, those of you that have a bit of spare time, to
take a look at a Bitcoin protocol specification I've written. It is still
in development and, as some of you have already indicated, needs
improvement. I'd be very thankful if some of you could take the
time to review it. If there are any errors or suggestions from your
side, I'd gladly hear them. My e-mail can be found on the front page
of the document:

Warm greetings,
Chris
