now that bittorrent 4.0 is out, would the next update be based on it? or still old core till later?

Because of the recent Legal Aggreement Changes Shadow will not be taking any modifications that the BitTorrent creator makes.

what does it means? you mean the new license change?

Under what license is BitTornado released? Is this one not compatible with the MIT license of BitTorrent?

i think the license has been changed again to open source. i am gonna try it out. it looks good.

not very impressive. i like tornado much better. we just neec to add queing and an rss feed

Why would he not incorporate new code because of the license change, and what would make you say that?

I see no evidence, from Shadow or anyone else, that this should be true. Furthermore, the new BitTorrent license allows you to include the code from it in any other OSI-licensed project, so long as you release the relevant portions of the source...since he's already doing that, I don't see a conflict here.

Read down a page or two, found the relevant topic.

Looks like Shad0w is indeed breaking with the 'official' codebase. More info [url="http://forums.degreez.net/viewtopic.php?t=4265"]here[/url].

Stupid random license change.

I have no doubt that any features in the 'official' client that are useful will end up in BitTornado sooner or later. Changing isnt worth it. BitTornado is too nice

Without breaking the new license - will there be some work on making the client a multi-torrent client?

I tried the new one discussed and that was the only good thing about it - quickly changed back. So I'm curious...

somehow, norton antivirus report bittorrent 4 as adware, i am not sure if it is true or not, any opinions?

oh yea, i downloaded from the official sourceforge links, not some weird linked mirror.

Might not look the prettiest, but the single port is a definate plus point to the official. Now that know that python is capable of it, it's something to look forward to.
