All new queue-based user interface. Many options are now modifiable from the interface, including upload rate. Lots of other interface improvements. Extra stats are visible, for those who like it. Remembers what it was doing across restarts. New .torrent maker "btmaketorrentgui" replaces "btcompletedir". Better performance, as always. License has changed to the BitTorrent Open Source License . Torrent fields are correctly created and interpreted as utf8. Too many little things to list.
Get this one and compile it yourself for best optimization.
Source Code. Its in python, as I see py extensions.

bittorrent is probably one of the worse things to happen to p2p sharing and maybe one of the best things. its horrible because it sucks up so much bandwith and the riaa, mpaa, and 'xyz' bitching about piracy causing them billions of dollars in losses (i doubt its in the billions but then again i doubt i even care).
its also a good thing beause its a nice replacement for kazaa; keeping the majority of these piracy thieves (aka downloaders) from finding the true source of what they are downloading. also, it keeps the above mentioned organizations busy and leaving those who would have been in danger if bt didn't become so huge, in the clear.
doesn't really help me either way but just wanted to share how this bt situation can be a good thing and a bad thing - depending on who you are i guess.

According to me BT is the best thing happened to p2p. Its the most advanced technique out there, and is the BASIS for p2p. This is what majority of professors from american Univs are going against the RIAA and MPAA assholes who hate bittorrent. If they cant compete, they deserve to get robbed.
