MorphOS: Update of eDonkey Client Bourriquet to Version 0.2.5
Bourriquet, the filesharing client for the eDonkey network from SixK (reverse engineering of the protocols and kernel development) and Rusback (mainly development of the GUI by way of MUI), has reached beta version 0.2.5.
This version is mostly considered for test use (in which debug output is generated) but it also allows one to contact a server, search for data, download small amounts of data, and upload data.
Interested developers may contact either co-author if they would like to take part in this project. There's still a lot to do and we're looking for support, as in the related case of Morgoth, the source of which is available at Castor CVS.
