New milestones

Dear phpMyBitTorrent users,
I've been really busy recently, and I'll be busier until July.

I want to inform you about the most recent improvements of phpMyBitTorrent.
After Sourceforge changed the CVS server for projects (so don't download from cvs.sourceforge.net anymore but use phpmybittorrent.cvs.sourceforge.net), all the work I did till now, except a few lazy files, is online inside CVS.

I didn't know that last Setup steps were not loaded in CVS: now they are, but I want to advise you that there are still some problems with OverLib that will be faced later.
As you should know, PHP's DOM XML is now a REQUIREMENT. Most servers can dynamically load DOM XML (till you keep Safe Mode disables), but it won't always work. I have prepared a guide and I have to translate it into English: it explains how to recompile DOM XML in the attempt to match PHP version (Windows doesn't seem to have such problems). Troubleshooting and help by PHP developers will make support easier for those who won't be able to install DOM XML.

But many of you could say: why the hell that DOM XML? Wasn't it all working fine before all this?
The truth is that XML features will be soon required for Shareaza Collection upload.
You don't need glasses! You have read good!
Shareaza Collection (now supported by eMule too) will be an essential part of phpMyBitTorrent to reach P2P's 4th dimension!

And here is the most important of the new features: LINK UPLOAD!
Finally, you can upload just a set of file links without Torrent. Simply provide the eDonkey2000 Link (and optionally Magnet) of the files you wish and they will be visible on the tracker near other Torrents.
Fantastic huh?

By the way, last news.
I just want to inform you all that phpMyBittorrent will be subject of my Data Bases exam at university. I've been able to convince my teacher that this is a good project, and he now wants to see the DB at interview! Hope this project will bring me luck!!!

About next release, I have to fix several issues with the current CVS, and I don't knwo how much time it will take.
