It's true that http and html are completely obsolete, the proof of that is how smartphone apps perform so much better than their web counterpart.
Honestly, I think there is a need to have solid p2p libraries, so to be able to use a DHT, NAT punchthrough or upnp more easily. P2P is immensely hard and has a lot of implications as much as it has usages. Isn't there a p2p filesystem already ? I'm sure you could distribute public data in a decentralized manner.
I don't know if libtorrent does it well, but since there are security issues implementing software that sends data packets directly, it would be greatly welcomed.
Also I don't believe diaspora went far enough in the decentralization method. There should be no server at all.
