Upstream changelog:
Version 0.62 (Released: 20081222)
StorageVFS:
* Implemented a filedescriptor cache to reduce
the number of open()/close() calls.
Core:
* Removed the (unimplemented) echo command that caused
bitflu to panic. Uups...
Telnet:
* Added 'clear' command to clear the screen
* Added 'repeat' command that repeats a command each second.
Example:
foo@bitflu> repeat clear ; date ; vd
(Hit CTRL+C to stop)
BitTorrent:
* Remember received peers (via Tracker, Kademlia or ut_pex)
and try to contact them in small steps.
This will/should result in more peers
* Removed torrent_minpeers setting
* Do not blacklist peer if first chunk was bad (Added MIN_HASHFAILS)
WebUI:
* Bugfix: The upload function forgot to remove tempfiles. oops.

Bitflu is a free BitTorrent client. The client was written in Perl and
is designed to run as a daemon (7x24h , like mlnet) on Linux, *BSD and
maybe even OSX.
* Multiple downloads
* Designed to run as a daemon/No GUI: You can connect to the client
using the telnet or HTTP interface
* Security: The client can chroot itself and drop privileges
* Bandwith shaping (currently only upload)
* Crash-Proof design: Crashes or a full filesystem will never corrupt
your downloads again :-)
* Non-Threading/(almost)Non-Forking design: All connections are handled
in non-blocking state using a dynamic select loop
