This is msg pack library looks really nice and has a good example. https://github.com/3Hren/msgpack-rust

What part of the protocol did want switched over the msgpack? The (nonce, payload) part?

@zmanian I'm thinking more the file descriptor/metadata message that's sent before the data blocks start coming in. This is kind of in anticipation of having more complex data structures when recursive folder downloading is implemented.

Keeping the (nonce, payload) structure for the crypto layer is probably fine as-is for now, I agree.
