Poisoned isn't really a new client and the project is in effect dead. My latest info is that their lead developer/maintainer (Ashton) left the project and started his own project called XFactor (
www.xfactor.cc) and the leftover developers decided to start from scratch.

giFT has its own Gnutella plugin. But nobody knowns why they actually added it as the target of giFT is/was to write an OpenFT and FT client. Well, mybe 'cuz FT didn't worked at the beginning, OpenFT didn't scaled at the beginning and they had to attract some ppl for their software? Hmm...!? gift.sourceforge.net says:

Gnutella/
A plugin shrouded in mystery and intringue included in the standard distribution to torment and confuse new giFT users. Err uhh, I mean I don't know much about it's implementation or specific details of the Gnutella network, so I will leave this as a sort of TODO element for hipnod to complete at his discretion.
