FrostWire is a community driven project based on source code released by LimeWire LLC to create and maintain a Gnutella client according to the open standards of an international community.

We are busy building a website and creating a new design for the FrostWire Gnutella client. Since LimeWire is a registered trademark we cannot distribute the client under its old name.

For that reason, we are looking for creative p2p fans that would like to create skins, design logos or websites. However we are also trying to get more people working on the Java core, the interface and the C++ windows installer (based on GnucDNA and NSIS). If you are interested in maintaining LimeWires legacy get involved!

We are trying to maintain good relations to the LimeWire project. The FrostWire team (all of whom are still members of the LimeWire open-source community) regrets LimeWires decision to start filtering content on Gnutella.

However, we will continue supporting LimeWire development and do not wish to make fundamental changes to the LimeWire core itself. FrostWire will not break with LimeWires design philosophy.

However the FrostWire project will never offer a PRO version. The FrostWire project will always remain strictly non-profit and free of any bundled software, including any ads or nags.

EZtorrent project is a program that simplifies the process of publishing content via BitTorrent.

EZtorrent automates the process of generating .torrent metainfo files, as well as starting trackers and seeders.

Although its very easy to download files BitTorrent, distributing your own files via BitTorrent yourself is not a comparatively straightforward process. You need to carefully generate .torrent metainfo files, start a tracker process, then start a seeder process for each individual .torrent file. EZtorrent combines all of this into one, easy step. Heres a "Quick Start" version of how easy it is to distribute BitTorrent content with EZtorrent:

Download and install BitTorrent according to its instructions.

Download EZtorrent, unpack the source code, run ./configure, make, and make install. See the INSTALL file for more information.

Run the following commands:

ezt create mytorrents /var/www/html/torrents /var/mytorrents
www.example.com 6969

Now, copy some files into /var/mytorrents

ezt start # Or "ezt restart", if ezt is already running

Thats it. ezt reads a list of all the files in /var/mytorrents. For each file, a corresponding .torrent file is created and placed in /var/www/html/torrents. Presumably this directory is published over the web with Apache, or some other HTTP server, where others can find them. Then, ezt starts a tracker process running on TCP port 6969 (the above example uses www.example.com as the DNS name of the machine running EZtorrent). Finally, ezt starts a seeder for each .torrent file.

New files can be added to, or removed from, /var/mytorrents at any time. After adding or removing files, run "ezt restart". ezt takes care of creating any new .torrents that need to be created, removing any obsolete .torrents of removed files, and starting or stopping the corresponding seeders. It is also possible to create different directories for different sets of files. You just need to specify a separate TCP port for each directory; ezt also takes care of starting (or stopping) a separate tracker process for each configured directory and port.

Although this is all that you need to know about using EZtorrent, be sure to review some additional important information in INSTALL and NEWS files, and EZtorrents manual page.

Flash! Torrent is a BitTorrent client that includes a small web browser for navigate in the webs about BitTorrent.

BitTorrent is a programl for distributing files. Its extremely easy to use - downloads are started by clicking on hyperlinks. Whenever more than one person is downloading at once
they send pieces of the file(s) to each other, thus relieving the central servers bandwidth burden. Even with many simultaneous downloads, the upload burden on the central server
remains quite small, since each new downloader introduces new upload capacity.

Windows web browser support is added by running an installer. A prebuilt one is available, but instructions for building it yourself are in BUILD.windows.txt

Linkage is a Gtk+ BitTorrent client written in C++.

Linkage is a BitTorrent using gtkmm and libtorrent. Features include DHT, PEX, UPnP, desktop notifications and torrent creation.

GSTorrent is a Bittorrent client/server system. A daemon program handles all the file transfers as a Bittorrent client. The GSTorrent daemon also acts as a server for an external GUI client.
The objective is to have a relatively small Bittorrent client, which runs on a small computer without a graphical interface and to control this server from a different machine.
An example of this type of architecture is the mldonkey client/server system for the edonkey protocol.
Enhancements:
- The torrent hash problem is fixed.
- The upload/download rate settings finally work correctly.
- A better torrent selector.

- Internet searching using The Bittorrent websites search engine
- UDP Trackers
It has only been tested on linux at the moment, but it should work on most, if not all unix platforms.
Enhancements:
- This is a bug fix release for the 2.2 version. The most notable bug it fixes is the file selection.
