p2pool is a distributed pool: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2Pool

Have Litecoin startup p2pool in the background. This would require the client to run python scripts.

First need to modify p2pool to support scrypt POW.

For Windows, we can use py2exe to create an executable for p2pool.

There is an implementation of Scrypt available for Python here: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/scrypt/

Yeah, I know about that but that only exposes the encrypt/decrypt function. I will have to write my own C wrapper for python to expose the functions Litecoin needs for scrypt.
