----------------------
.: The upload limit and capacity as well as the downloadlimit will now be set to unlimited by default
.: When the uploadcapacity is set to unlimited (0), USS will be automatically enabled to determinate the best uploadspeed
.: If using the prio default capacity (16KB), the new version will reset it (one time) to the new default unlimited
zz: UploadSpeedSense will at most raise speed 30 KBytes/s above current upload speed. This will prevent it from raising to very high limits if your client
can't upload fast enough to reach the limit due to no clients in queue.
zz: Bugfix+enhancement to the code that requests less of the file from slow download sources. Will now only activate this code if there's little enough
left of the file to complete.
Ornis: Resizeable collection windows
Ornis: added some USS localisations
Unk: Some cpu fixes for Kad. (Kry)
Unk: Changed how we maintain contacts for kad.

eMule 0.46b Beta
----------------------
- June, 28. 2005 -

zz: Removed "Automatically Swap All (A4AF) Sources To This File" menu item. For the same effect, raise download priority on the file instead. See Web
Help&Support -> Features -> Source Management
zz: When downloading from a really slow source, request less of the file at a time. This locks less of the file, so if there's a faster source available
we have a better chance of downloading from it even when the file is almost completely downloaded.

eMule will restart as the same users but with reduced privileges (but same file permissions).
This helps users which are already working with an Non-Admin account to improve the security a bit more

limit.
zz: When using several pings (tweak prefs setting), USS now uses median value instead of average value. This removes some of the randomness in the ping
times to better see the trend and give a more stable speed. About 1-8 pings recommended.

White = You don't have the part.
Red = You are the only one known to have/share this part. Please don't unshare the file.
Blue = You and others are sharing this part; the lighter blue, the less people sharing it.
