CHANGELOG FOR EMULE
===================

----------------------
- September 10th, 2002-
----------------------
(0.18b "Hotfix" ;) )
Merkur: Fixed a critical bug which caused the client to drop all compressed packets (with the message: Corrupted compressed packet for X received)
Merkur: Some other bugs are fixed too

----------------------
- September 7th, 2002-
----------------------
Merkur: Added a first part of the eMule-Protocol. This protokoll will offer several features, but will only work for clients which are supporting this
protocol (atm only emule v0.18 and higher). The download and uploadwindow will show an icon with a green "+" on clients which are supporting this protocol.
Merkur: (eprot only) Files are now send in compressed packets. Depending on the file you are downloading this will reduce the downloadsize by (estaminated):
0% zip/ace/rar and other archives. These files are sent unpacked (because they are already max. compressed)
2-15% bin/avi/mp3 these files are already compressed very often, however a moderate-small size reduction is possible
15%-? unpacked files the size of unpacked files can be greatly reduced, however it doesn't happen that often that you download a unpacked file
Another advantage of compression is, that compressed packets are checked for transfer errors. That means emule will recognize a corrupted packet and you
have to redownload 180KB instead of 10MB.
However everything has a downside: Compression needs some CPU time but you shouldn't notice it.
NOTE: This also means that it can happen that a file is finished before "transfered" has reached the filesize. this is no bug.
Merkur: (eprot only) you can now see which rank you have on the uploadqueue of of sources. It's shown in the downloadwindow/priority tab.
Merkur/mbobka : emule crashed/frezzed somtimes while completing files. This should hopefully be fixed. We are working on all bugs (especially on
crashbugs). Please be patient :)
Merkur: Added a autoconnect on startup option
