StealthNet 0.8 Build 2007.6.7.1 is out now
 

It is a great pleasure for us to present you the first release of StealthNet, a client for the anonymous RShare network.

1. Kudos

First off I will start with the kudos. They fly out to

- Lars, because without this guy neither the RShare network nor the StealthNet client would exist. He created the RShare client as well as the protocol for the RShare network and deserves our full respect Cool

- without a highly engaged developer team StealthNet would never have been born and for this reason a huge "thanks!" goes out to this guys. I am glad to be part of such a great team and want and want to let you know that it is a great pleasure for me to be involved in the StealthNet development process

- the Beta team. Without these guys a lot of bugs would never have been found and fixed and I can assure that they are great bug hunters Smiley

- our design department who created the new StealthNet splash screen and the StealthNet icon

2. New features

StealthNet 0.8 has a lot of new and funky features in comparison with RShare Chamäleon 0.7.1.5:


- Download Resuming (allows resuming of interrupted downloads)

- Optimized bandwidth allocation when upload/download limit is activated

- Shared files and directories are now added or removed in real time

- Redundant downloads from multiple sources have been removed

- Multilanguage support (as of now Englisch and German is supported, French and Spanish will follow)

- Search filter for file types

- Pre-defined search for file extensions

The most important feature in particular is download resuming. From now on interrupted downloads can be resumed once a file source is available in the RShare network.

3. Future prospects

There are already a lot of further enhancements in the pipeline which I can´t talk about at the moment. However, I can assure that the RShare network is growing day by day and with language support for French and Spanish we expect even more new users.
