1. Is metadata implemented? I haven't seen a trace of it anywhere. How does it get inserted?

2. How does Limewire determine if a system is elligable to become an ultrapeer or not? Is it possible to see if your own system is an ultrapeer? What is a leaf protocol?

3. Is there any reason why we can't chat with people who are downloading from us?

4. I am seeing tons of problems with uploads and downloads. First, downloads don't seem to work. I even purposely tried download a very popular file (with over 40 hosts all over three stars) and it still wouldn't work. I also see at least 4 upload slots taken but the speed is always at 0KB/s. Occasionally the speed has jumped up to 21KB/s and then dropped back down to 0KB/s. Is this normal?

5. I got one NonFatal error upon installation of Limewire, but Limewire still seems to work ok (except for downloads and uploads). Here is the error:


Install Action: RPMSpecFile
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - java.lang.NullPointerException
