AFAIK soon ... when the next beta comes out. I think they need to clean a few things up before they release it. ie: it will only be in the beta release initially.

Good thing it's a beta then. So we can tell them the problems they need to fix. Like bugs and other things.

Don't know when the following article was written but it's an interesting read. I can't wait for LimeWire to start Torrents. User-friendly torrents? Bliss!!!

Just hope they give the option to disable DHT (Distributed tracked) or it won't be any use on trackers that demand ratio above a certain level.

If they do this they better do it for real and not some DHT dependent version of BitTorrent protocol. This would give the sharers better access to files then the leeches (freeloaders)
