You use your network resources and spend your personal time sharing your
files to the network.
Did you know other people are making big bucks and buying new cars
because of your efforts?
Do you want your efforts to go towards corporate overhead?
Do you spend your time sharing files so other greedy people can get rich?
Are you worried that the RIAA/MPAA can pressure commercial P2P companies
into giving them your personal information through threats of law suits?
If greed is #1 and the RIAA offers them $$$ do you think they will turn it down?
Are you tired of spyware and popup ads?

Join the OpenSource P2P Net today!

No corporate greed is allowed on the OpenSource P2P Net! If a client
does not provide source code and/or tries to make money from their
software, the client is blocked automatically!

No spyware, no popup ads because it's open source!

Only pure P2P file sharing, like it should be!

It's easy! Look for patches or new versions of your favorite open source
client on this forum! Gnucleus is the first to have a easy patch and is ready to
join the OpenSource P2P Net!

Here's the patch to get on the OpenSource P2P Net:

In Gnucleus, "GnucleusDoc.cpp" at about line 115
ModeNetwork = "GNUTELLA";

All you have to do is change it to
ModeNetwork = "OPENSOURCE";

And you are ready to go!
Anyone want to supply a downloadable version?
It wouldn't be hard to add to "Preferences.cpp" a line that would allow this to be changed in the "GnuConfig.ini" file.

Do you really think Vinnie is rolling in money? I hope he is making enough to live on but I seriously doubt that he is getting rich from BS. Even if he makes money so what? He is putting alot of hard work into the development of BS. The only work you are willing to put into gnutella development is to destroy the network by changing 1 line in the source of a client you didnt even write. Get a life. You complain about Vinnie creating a private network (which he hasnt) and then go and try the same thing. HYPOCRITE!!


No one will find any files on your lame little network.

Others do the same without payment!

Morgwen

And he is only putting the work in for the Bear$hare network.
Plus he puts all his users and even the rest of the network at risk by having closed source and a commercial interest (think RIAA and other greedy corporations).

While everyone is so busy bitching about BS has anyone looked at Morpheus. They are the biggest commercial interest in gnutella right now.

When they release Morpheus 2.0 it is not clear if it will even still be part of the gnutella network or not. And, they have already said that 2.0 will contain Copy Right Enforcement technology.

So much for gnucleus being the number 1 client as soon as 2.0 is released.

Quite wasting your time fighting BS and worry about morpheus instead.


BTW, while many people do put alot of hard work into their clients for free I have yet to see a non-commercial client that can compare with Bearshare or Limewire. Gnucleus is great and I hope it continues to get much better but John can't keep up doing the programing on the side.

You poor boy, try to build up a new picture of an enemy?

No, Mopheus hasn't made any unfriendly steps against the Gnutella network as Vinnie, nor sneaky attempts to brake up the network. But indeed Morpheus is open source and we all can learn from their improvements.... Morpheus good, Bearshare bad.

Sounds familiar. Bearshare fanatics were bitching against Xolox (best client of it's time).... now (after Vinnie silently blocked Xolox with some unfounded v0.4 blabla) they will bitch against Morpheus because it's the client with biggest market share. The old story.

Can you say digital rights management. YES, thats right, Morpheus is introducing copyright protection into 2.0. And no, it probably wont be opensource when 2.0 is released. Its not even clear if it will still be part of the gnutella network.
