What can see a server of a Bittorent when I contact with it through Tor?

For both these aims, there are projects. The
HiddenTracker<http://z6gw6skubmo2pj43.onion>is a bittorrent tracker
put behind a Tor hidden service (but it seems to be
down <http://twitter.com/HiddenTracker/status/9451900556> right now).
BitBlinder <http://www.bitblinder.com/> attempts to create a closed
Tor-based network for bittorrent traffic, including a system attempting to
assure equal sharing.
