Hi. There's quite a bit of talk about extensions to the peer protocol, but I don't know of any clean way to test them. For example, there's talk of ...

Heya guys, Its me again. This time with an idea to make .torrent files searchable. As i think that the BT protocol doesn't have any plan to introduce search...
Hey guys, I think that you didn't get very well my idea. I know that multiple trackers have been around for some time, but my idea is to make them dynamic,...
Hi Bram and Team thanks for the new beta and the torrent maker. I want to suggest to add the sha1 (128 pieces liek shareaza) and ed2k hash to torrentmaker. So...

Yeah, you probably right, but i still feel that making torrent decentralized wouldn't be the same as traditional P2P networks add a great overhead on the...

I am working on integrating BitTorrent and Yum and it would be lovely if when a package is upgraded the tracker could tell all current peers / seeds that this...

I think the new bittorrent.com's 3.9 does this. However, I'm also working on a project to facilitate BT for large-scale content providers. We've built a...
