Well, it'll take a couple of days. Since BearShare and LimeWire have virtually no chance to "meet" at GWebCaches and BearShare never bothered to add UHC support, these islands will become incrementally separated. > I don't get it at all - my friend's using Shareaza on gnutella > network, and it just works fine Gnutella is in general pretty tolerant. Even the worst implementation will "work somehow". Also file transfers are based on HTTP with just a few extras. So if your software speaks HTTP sufficiently well, it will probably work "just fine". However only a certain amount of incomplete or inferior nodes are acceptable because at some point they'll turn the network into goo. It's often that simpler software uses less resources and thus appears as superior to some users. That's fine for locally running software but if it affects a shared resource like a network, that can become a problem. The basic issue of all multi-network clients is that they only support a very few networks sufficiently well - if any at all. It's not just Shareaza, it also applies to MLDonkey, giFT and Morpheus. If they had hundreds or at least dozens of developers that might work but all of those have only a handful or 1-3 developers. That's barely sufficient to support one complex network. > (he is not ultrapeer however) - and I > don't think he uses some very outdated version (moreover shareaza > keeps adversiting it supports g1 and g2 on its website)... I didn't say Shareaza itself is outdated, I say there Gnutella code is. That's no secret. Just ask them yourself. In any case, please, there's is no such thing as G1, g1, Gnutella1, Gnutella 1.0 etc. There's Gnutella and there's G2. > So which clients do support gnutella (besides gtkg of course :D)? LimeWire and Phex are other good Gnutella implementations. FrostWire is *exactly* LimeWire but it hasn't been updated for quite a while and LimeWire is not evil yet. So there's little point in using it. -- Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
