    A new release of BitTorrent is out, get it here -

    http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/

    Since there hasn't been one in a while (over a month!) there's a ton of
    new stuff, including -

            * rewritten UI - now all graphical and works in mozilla/netscape
                under UNIX!
            * clean shutdown
            * monothreading - this produced a *huge* performance increase
            * several big bugs fixed - we're down to no known bugs!
            * the publisher now stores metadata in files, so it doesn't have
                to re-scan files every time it restarts
            * the tracker now stores publisher and downloader information
                persistently, so downloads start working again as soon as it
                restarts
            * oodles of other small improvements
