Versie 0.11 van PicoTorrent is uitgekomen. PicoTorrent is een betrekkelijk nieuwe speler op de bittorrent-markt. Het programma is geschreven in C++ 14 en maakt net als vele andere cliënts gebruik van libtorrent. PicoTorrent is volgens eigen zeggen modern, snel en licht in het gebruik. Ondanks dat de core cross-platform is, is het programma momenteel alleen beschikbaar voor Windows. De changelog voor versie 0.11 laat de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen zien:
Release notesIt's been a long time since the last release, but finally, here's 0.11 for all your BitTorrent needs. This new version has been refactored almost from the ground up and contains a brand new plugin API as well as a lot of bug fixes and other features.
Do not update if you rely on the WebSocket functionality. It will be added back in v0.12
