newest aria2 now supports the new format (+ other goodies)! aria2 1.9.0 ===========
Release Note ------------ This release adds Metalink4 support and BitTorrent Local Peer Discovery. aria2.changeUri XML-RPC method was added. It enables you to add/remove URIs to existing downloads dynamically. The user and password for proxy server now can be specified in command-line separately. We refactored the code based on profiler results, so aria2 now runs more efficiently than ever. Russian and Simplified Chinese translation were updated.
