KTorrent 4.0.5 and 4.1beta1 out

Two new releases on one day, first a new bugfix release in the 4.0 branch. It fixes several crashes, and other small issues in the µTP code. This will probably be the final release in the 4.0 series.

Next to this release the first beta of 4.1 has also been released. This is a testing release so that the new features in 4.1 can have their first test. The most notable changes in this release are:

  • Video streaming support
  • Superseeding support
  • Data file moves are now tracked in the GUI
  • The GUI has been redesigned and now makes proper use of KDE's KParts technologie
  • The search plugin now uses webkit
  • Exclusion patterns have been added to the syndication plugin filters

And many other smaller changes. For a full overview of all the changes, take a look in the ChangeLog's of libktorrent and ktorrent.
