Default 8 hosts vs 10 hosts

some1 said the number of hosts to swarm from is hard coded in LW/FW and the nubmer 10 can only be reached if using LW PRO.
Well, isnt LW/FW open source software? Shouldnt it be possible to easily change that number in frostwire from 8 to 10.

No I do not know how to write code I use Frostwire basic. Although I also have LimeWire Pro and I do pay for it every 6 months. I have also donated to the FrostWire team. And will gladly donate again if the need arises. There are cost associated with any kind of development. After all time is money I do believe in what LimeWire and the Frostwire teams are doing.

And since I am on the subject Thanks Frostwire Team for your time, efforts and $ on the FrostWire project it is appreciated.

FrostWire was originally started because of the position LimeWire is in and the direction they may eventually have to go with their software. FrostWire will preserve the original Idea of the LimeWire development.

I do not know how long they will be able to provide their services at a free gratis nor do I care. If the time comes that they need help then I and hopefully others will provide the help needed.

Well I guess I got a little off subject but what the hell Thanks guys

i dont think it takes much programming skills to change that. i'll have to check it out. i know this aint C++ but programming logic should be the same.

Ahhh yes, the sweet tasting nectar of frostwire *cough*pro?*cough*...

I've been debating this in my head if frostwire should increase the downloading host numbers by 2. (this would be equivalent to the download speed as limewire pro.)

Maybe I need a little financial incentive.
