Vrijdag is er met versienummer 0.750 een nieuwe ontwikkelversie van het p2p-programma DC++ uitgekomen. DC++ is een van de vele programma's om bestanden via het Direct Connect-netwerk uit te wisselen. De twee plussen in zijn naam dankt dit programma aan het feit dat het in c++ geschreven is. Het pakket wordt door Jacek Sieka ontwikkeld en is een opensourcevariant van de originele Neomodus Direct Connect-client. Deze release is de eerste versie die stabiel genoeg gevonden wordt door de ontwikkelaars na de migratie naar MinGW, de Windows-port van de GNU softwareontwikkelingsapplicaties. Hieronder zijn de volledige release notes van deze uitgave te vinden:
Notes:
