I’ve been working with Trevor Hogan with his recent implementation of a BitTorrent compatible tracker. He’s been developing on the Windows side; Richard Stanway helped him with Linux, and I got it working with MacOS X, FreeBSD, and Sun Solaris. Not bad for a couple days work.

This program provides a server-side tracker; much faster than an interpeted language as Python, with a rather low memory footprint, and neglible CPU useage. This will make Torrent site administrator’s lives much easier – administratively and otherwise!

You’ll find a semi-current and stable beta release, dubbed ‘beta 3.1b’ available via download here.
