What
is eDonkey?
At dawn of May 13th 2002 a guy called Merkur was
dissatisfied with the original eDonkey2000 client
and was convinced he could do better. So he did.
He gathered other developers around him, and eDonkey
Project was born. Their aim was to put the client
back on track where eDonkey had been famous before,
adding tons of new features and a nice GUI. They
couldn't imagine what impact this decision would
have...
As of today, eDonkey is one of the biggest and
most reliable peer-to-peer file sharing clients
around the world. Thanks to it's open source policy
many developers are able to contribute to the
project, making the network more efficient with
each release.
What does eDonkey mean?
The name "eDonkey" comes from an animal
called "Mule" which is somehow similar
to a donkey ;)
How often is eDonkey updated?
eDonkey is not updated regularly, but at the moment
the frequencies are between 1 and 3 months. Don't
take this for guaranteed. :)
