Bittornado 0.3.12

Thanks symal for this submission.

You have something terrific to publish -- a large music or video file, software, a game or anything else that many people would like to have. But the more popular your file becomes, the more you are punished by soaring bandwidth costs. If your file becomes phenomenally successful and a flash crowd of hundreds or thousands try to get it at once, your server simply crashes and no one gets it.

There is a solution to this vicious cycle. BitTorrent, the result of over two years of intensive development, is a simple and free software product that addresses all of these problems.

The key to scaleable and robust distribution is cooperation. With BitTorrent, those who get your file tap into their upload capacity to give the file to others at the same time. Those that provide the most to others get the best treatment in return. ("Give and ye shall receive!")

Bittornado is a front end GUI that compliments BitTorrent with an array of tools and statistics to monitor your up/downloads.

WHAT'S NEW:

  • reverted to Python 2.3 / wxPython 2.5.2 to finally fix task stickiness

  • fix for 64-bit CPUs

  • randomized port selection
NOTE:

- May require port forwarding adjustment

- Still no new GUI, been working on the engine
