the new edonkey is supposed to be the same thing as Overnet or on the same network.

This should clear things up.

------------------------------------


What is eDonkey?
eDonkey is the most advanced file sharing application around. It is a completely decentralized peer to peer network. It allows you to trade any type of file, mp3s, video, images, software, etc. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

What is Overnet?
Overnet is the distributed search network that the donkey uses to find files. It was a standalone application but we have now combined both clients into one.


7.30.04: New Version
We have released a new version of the donkey. Overnet is now just bundled within the donkey. So there is just one client to choose.
