Hello all,

I'm happy to release RubyTorrent version 0.2. RubyTorrent is a pure-Ruby
BitTorrent peer library. Changes in version 0.2 include many bugfixes
and API enhancements, plus (finally!) some API documentation.

RubyTorrent has a RubyForge page:

  http://rubytorrent.rubyforge.org

Download 0.2 directly from:

  http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=498&release_id=1405

RubyTorrent now has a mailing list:

  http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubytorrent-devel

Have fun,

···

Hey William,

I did some more testing on version 0.2 and found .torrent structures with unconsidered fields.
btw, great job so far!
