BearShare is een p2p-uitwisselingsprogramma dat gebruikmaakt van het Gnutella-netwerk. Dit netwerk wordt door veel programma's gebruikt om bestanden uit te wisselen waardoor het aanbod zeer divers is. Het ontwikkelteam is nog steeds druk bezig met de doorontwikkeling van versie 4.8.0 zoals je met deze veertigste bètaversie kunt zien. Het changelog sinds de laatste vermelding in de meuktracker ziet er als volgt uit:
