@changgaowei: The latest version of ANP has been released. Supporting open-source projects will be rolled out gradually—stay tuned. This article is technical in nature. In one sentence: ANP has made inter-agent cross-domain communication more solid. Email can also do cross-domain communication, but it has two fatal flaws: one is the heavy historical baggage of the protocol, so basically no one explores agent protocols based on email; the other is identity—email identities are hard to adapt for agents. I'll dive into this topic another day.
Summary
The latest version of ANP (Agent Network Protocol) has been released, with supporting open-source projects to follow. This protocol has made substantial improvements in cross-domain communication for agents, and is better suited to agent identity and communication needs compared to the Email protocol.

The latest version of ANP has been released. Over the coming weeks, corresponding open-source projects will be rolled out. Stay tuned.
This post is technical—here’s a one-liner: ANP now handles cross-domain communication between agents more robustly.
Email can also enable cross-domain communication, but it has two major flaws. First, the protocol carries too much historical baggage, so there’s almost no exploration of agent protocols based on it. Second, identity—Email’s identity model is hard to adapt for agents. I’ll dive into this topic another day.
