"What is giFT, you ask? giFT is a modular daemon capable of abstracting the communication between the end user and specific filesharing protocols (peer-to-peer or otherwise). The giFT project differs in that it is a distribution of the daemon, libgift, and our own homegrown network OpenFT.

The goal of this project is to ensure that user interface developers never waste time with the low-level details of a protocol and that network programmers never waste time with the user interface details. Along those same lines it allows end users to control which protocols they use no matter which giFT interface they have selected as their favorite. Any new filesharing network can be supported without any change to the user interface. Cool, huh?"
