All releases of The Hunting of the Snark Project


Release Notes: This release adds storage, coordinator, and shutdown listeners, an experimental Gnome frontend, 'info' and 'list' commands, and a --no-commands flag for running in the background. Reloading of BAD pieces has been fixed. Metainfo piece hash generation for --share has been fixed.


Release Notes: This release has the beginnings of a command shell (text UI), implements a clean shutdown, fixes deadlocks, keeps the interested state up to date, generates and handles cancel messages, has configurable debug log levels, and has small (but important) protocol fixes. Upgrading from older versions is highly recommended.


Release Notes: A nasty bug which often disconnected clients behind a NAT gateway was fixed. A couple of suggestions made by Bram Cohen were implemented to make Snark more conformant to the BitTorrent protocol. This makes the upload and download sharing speeds much faster and reliable. It also eliminates most of the "got unrequested piece" warning messages. The tracker, torrent, and Web server code have not been changed much, and this release does not contain new features.
