Arrgh... 

We might be OK here. People were pretty against DCP at one of our meetings,
because of the semi-homonym with TCP. But searching on the Web for
"Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse Protocol" doesn't turn up any results.
Furthermore, the Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse pages refer to "the DCC
protocol", never "DCCP".
