Hehe and you think ppl will get a client that doesnt report downloads and then start downloading from someone they dont like and then report them to the operator for faking?

I'm trying to interpret "not as much crap, and much safer".

Safe from whom?

You've just outlined various DC shortcomings regarding multiple hub support and workarounds (well, partial ones: user-GUIDs aren't sufficient, because the same pair of users could both be on multiple hubs, and per-user-GUIDs don't disambiguate connections). The changes you suggest aren't likely to g...

As Todi points out, the DC protocol prevents dedicated slots. See one of the multiple shares/hubs threads for why. Therefore, I had hoped it wasn't critical to your idea. Oh well. Now, pretend that problem can be solved (a new protocol would do it; ADC for example), and a trivial modification: a pai...

Because your hub software's insufficient, you want DC++ to solve your bandwidth problems for you?
