This is a major update that includes new features and several major and minor bug fixes.

• Optional automatic seed queue management system that rotates seeds in and out of standby depending on seed/peer counts and bandwidth
• Optional download queue auto-skip feature that will start additional queued downloads when bandwidth is under-utilized
• Queue management is fully configurable via XMLe in Settings > Transfers > General
• Dragging transfers can now queue/unqueue them in addition to simple reordering
• Peer/seed counts in status column reflect verified connections and not unverified tracker/dht counts
• Super Seeding Improvements
• Several web seeding fixes
• Several transfer-related GUI improvements
• Outgoing tracker transactions are queued and delayed under heavy load
• Category sub-menus grouped according to last category separator
• New “codeview” fixed-width font for editing XMLe for menus, socket parameters, and queue management settings
• Legacy .dat configuration files are no longer loaded/saved (they have not been in use since v1.41), which speeds up shutdown
• Relaxed incoming connection rate limits
• Lowered incoming connection timeouts
• Several tracker protocol and timing improvements
• Improved poisoned piece recovery routines (especially with multiple block sources)
• Channel streaming improvements, especially for low bitrates and small segments
• Channel info/share editing remembers state when channel selection changes
• Several other channel-related GUI fixes
• Fixed problems with auto-throttle trace/ping on IPv6-only networks
• Major overhaul of core event loop and task-queuing system for smoother operation
• Eliminated dependencies on win32 pthreads library, most of OpenSSL, and boost::regex

We are working toward a major overhaul of the channels system, including a share/search/browse network that operates independently of channels.
