Ants is an anonymous p2p program with swarming and partial file sharing capabilities. Te preogrammer, Gwren, has said that it is torrent ready and only needs a plug in to support torrents. He is too busy improving the core protocol to do it now.
It should not be hard or any good programmer (which i am not) to do. All you need to know is java and be familiar with how torrents works. Ants is open source.
The anonnymous nataure of ants might be just what bit torrent needs.
Slycktom - not so slyck - this is the Bit torrent forum. [sarcasm]You know where bit torrent users discuss technical bit torrent developments such as a bit torrent plugin for a proxy network (ANts).[/sarcasm]Originally Posted by Slycktom
I thought news sites like Slyck were meant to be fair and balanced.
Instead of flaming why don't you make a sensible comment, like pointing out that azereus bit torrent client is also written in Java and is opensource, like ANts and so Tsafa should contact its developers.
It seems that journalism is dead at Slyck.
I think Zeropaid has taken over; the biggest, the best and the most impartial.

Slyck was perfectly justified in removing this from their forum. This post would be more appropriate in the Ants forum then there would be no objection.
This is interesting. why did you delete your post, SlyckTom?
I didnt delete my post, it must have been modded out. Ironic actually :-D
Right, I was thinking just the other day, damn this torrent isn't slow enough
:mellow
LOL
I agree this post would be better in ANts forum on Zeropaid.
No need to post to Syck as 1)Don't have ANts forum and 2)Even if they did they would remove post, lock thread, ban user and accuse him of spamming :) and 3)They hate anonymous p2p in the Syck fiefdom.

Point one, dont involve slyck in this discusion, IE no trolling other forums. Now it was not personal, but as I received a complaint about your post I removed it. So you can blame me. I just didnt want any back and forth fighting between the sites. Again it was not a personal thing in the least.
Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.
In Toms defence he has shut down topics that are against Ants and annonymous p2p on his forums .
The original post should'nt have been posted on many p2p forums and should of been posted in the Ants forum first and then if there where disscussion maybe post in another forum, because most people that interested in the development of p2p apps will read the appropriate forum if they so wish.
It is a shame that people cant disscuss annomous p2p without there being alot of flaming from a handfull of users back and forth .
Oh Im not knocking Tom at all, and think he runs a great site. Im just trying to prevent this back and forth crap.
Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.
Aussiematt could we get back on topic here :)
We need your vast knowledge, clear thinking, diplomatic ability and research genius to solve this one.
Tom's OK he can stand up for himself he doesn't need you to defend him :)
(So don't be distracted)
Is it possible to add a bit torrent plugin to ants?
Could the developers at Azereus do it?
Thanks in advance
Hornet
My commet was posted in the Bit-torrent forem because I felt that this would benefit Bit-Torrent more then Ants given the attacks on SuperNova. Also because this would have to be developed by bit-torrent programers who know how bit-torrent works. I do not expect Ant people to know how to make torrents.
Hornet, thank you for telling me that Azereus is an open source Java bit-torrent client. That is exaclty the information i was looking for. I will do a google search and try to find the right person to email. If anyone knows, please post here.
Azurues has a guide to using TOR on thier website with so im sure they are working toward to provide some sort of annominity in Bittorent already .
