Hello, world
Well, I'm still alive. I explained some status stuff on http://cillian64.wordpress.com, and what's going on. In brief, I'm still alive, but busy (to some extent) and lazy. And sourceforce is annoying me, a bit. Oh, and I use vista now.

0.3!
Well, tuxcast 0.3 is up. New features and stuff is all on the sourceforge release page, and I'm now tired, so I won't repeat it. Enjoy, tell me about any bugs, and feel free to send me money

Bittorrent
Ok - here is the plan of attack for bittorrent support:
Make tuxcast download all files after all the feeds are finished with - reason, we don't want to be torrenting for ages without having checked some of the feeds.(done)Make tuxcast recognise when torrent files have been got (Either by the extension, magic bit, or otherwise) and execute a subroutine.(done)Implement a standalone torrent client separate to tuxcast, to get the hang of libtorrent(done)Implement real torrenting inside tuxcast. (At this point, libtorrent will probably close once the file is done)(done)- Get working status reporting (Kinda necessary to calculate the share ratio, to do the below.)
- Give an option to continue seeding after the file is finished until the share ratio reaches a certian point, e.g. 1.00
- (Optional) Implement parallel torrenting, so time is not wasted if one torrent does not saturate the bandwidth (Not sure if this is actually posible with libtorrent
- (Extra) Convince some feed maintainers to actually provide RSS feeds of their podcasts (Aquarius, I'm talking to you)
