Hi,
While I think everyone has different opinions about what makes an app good or bad, I think you are missing the point of Xolox. It is designed to be a simple utility. I am an experienced net user and I am extremely impressed with this utility.

Adding all those "features" will just throw Xolox on the heap of all the other bloatware. Just look at ICQ now. ICQ is now 5.1 MB, filled with crap "features". (uh oh!)

I quote:
"While developing XoloX we focused on three criteria:
Ease of use:
We kept XoloX as simple as possible. We don't like to bother the user with configuration questions or a complex interface. "

You dont need a buddy list because you dont control where you get the files from anyway, and this isnt the idea of the gnutella network.

just my 2c

cheers
