| Shareaza project needs experienced coders |
 |
Shareaza is an all-purpose file sharing client. It allows you to share your files with other people on the internet, and of course dowload files that other people are sharing. This works with any file type.
Shareaza can connect to four different networks:
- Gnutella2: The most advanced p2p protocol on the market
- Gnutella: The open source protocol from which Gnutella2 has evolved.
- eDonkey2000: The best network when it comes to large files.
- BitTorrent: BT is used to distribute large files with the help of centralised trackers.
The shareaza program is coded in C++ with MFC. Since MFC is becoming deprecated, the development team has decided to swith over to QT3/QT4.
Unfortunately, because of the lack of active developers, nobody is willing to start the transformation, because other issues are handled as top priority (bug fixes,...)
Shareaza is open source and can be found at Sourceforge project page
Please, if you consider yourself a good QT developer, and you have experience with porting MFC and C++ code, join the development team at The Development Forum and start porting some code, all tiny bits help.
Thank you on behave of a community that has 300,000+ people backing it.

This is the one program that I would love to see ported most of all.
There are BT clients for Linux, however Shareaza provides a stable means to bring together four networks at once. The dev team made a great product, and they want to get away from MFC, but they need to help to begin that transition. QT 4 is supposed to be a great framework, and this is a high profile app that could show off the benefits of the QT framework.
I am really hoping that someone with QT experience heeds this call.
