[ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
Project Gazelle or SysDev
Project Gazelle: Created by the What.cd Team! Running a Gazelle Front-End Similar to that of TBSource with heavy modification and a XBT Tracker (C++) as the back-end.
SysDev: Created by the Infamous System. Running PHP Front-End and a PHP Back-End, it imo is the Next Big Source. After testing it was theoretically capable of 450,000 peers on a $70.00 Server.
So whats the next big source?

SysDev? What tracker uses that?

No tracker at the moment, in fact both sources are unused atm, but check out

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
:lol: everyone votes Project Gazelle because its more widely known. Read up on both you n00bs.
Is C++ known by all who choose Project Gazelle? /me doubts

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
i'd have to save project gazelle
looks hot.

Incorrect, many sites are looking to drop the outdated source. And XBTT has been out a while, but not many are familiar with C/C++ so they have no clue how to get it functioning properly.

No TehConnection uses a basically 95% rewritten TBSource with XBTT backend.

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
Gazelle is all about improving MUSIC trackers, it's stupid to compare both imo. I didn't vote.

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
I put my money on SysDev.

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
I don't know what either of these look like. :(

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
can't wait to see whats finished product:)

Yes, it's me. Infamous though?
I don't see it as competition. I spent last night with some of the other alpha testers of gazelle poking holes in it so it can be better secured, and I regularly talk to at least one member of their team.
I was slightly envious when I saw their staff control panel, but the 2 are aimed at different things so their panel would not work in sysdev, just as some of my optimizations wouldn't work for them.
A little info about sysdev though. The aim of the (very preliminary) speed test was not to show that it could handle hundreds of thousands of connections per hour, but that it could handle connections on very cheap hardware. If I'm succesful and 450K peers can go on a $70 box, 10K peer sites should easily run on a <$10 VPS.
I want it to be an out of the box, easy set up site for small to medium sites that can be run on shared hosting or a VPS.
As things stand at the moment, there's no real easy way to get a site setup, secured and optimized unless you are a coder or have one to help you. I don't believe that all torrent sites should be run by coders, who may not actually be best for the job. I'm a coder, and I'm crap as a mod/admin :P
You'll also need a good VPS or dedi box very quickly for any new site that's succesful. This costs money, and leaves a paper trail, so new sites cannot easily appear overnight. Revolt did, but I had a server already and I then spent the next week doing security and optimization.
Basically, I want to remove the barrier that prevents non-coders from setting up a new site whenever one is needed.
When oink went down, a lot of people were looking for an alternative but had to wait for what/waffles. When I started revolt to house the misplaced community from another site, everyone was waiting for someone else to come along and do it.
I don't see any reason why any group of people with a common interest should have to wait days, let alone weeks, or why they should need to ensure they have the finances before starting.
If it can be running within minutes, and have a cost requirement of $10 with a code requirement of zero, things can only be better for the users.
Fast setup and low requirements also mean that should a site be taken offline, it can be running again elsewhere very quickly.
For that reason, it wont have anywhere near the level of complexity or features that gazelle or any fully modded tb source does. But it will have the basics you need to start running a private site with the most useful extras, while being as secure as I can make it.

We all :wub: our 'crap' sysop, you have created a very special place, and what you are doing for the future of the community by developing the sysdev
code is awesome. I truly wish I had the ability to give to the community what
you have done with code development.

Perhaps it's too easy to understand :)
Of course all private trackers need tracking ratio sys. lol

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
yeah a right to go with an option at this moment would be wrong so letz wait for the results

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
i would say none, the next revolutionnary torrent source would have to be in ruby on rails, nothing revolutionnary using php

The thing about ruby on rails is that it's a framework. It's primarily designed so you don't have to reinvent the wheel, and use prebuilt code for most things.
Nothing revolutionary can come from that.
Building every single line of code from the ground up and doing things in new ways is the only way to revolutionize it.
Besides, a good reason for building it line by line is so you know it's secure. Blindly using someone elses library is bad enough, using a framework where you never even see the code you are relying on is worse.
Frameworks are also slower than custom code whether they are written in php or ruby. They have overheads that the custom code doesn't.
Besides all that, how many places have ROR installed? How many people can understand ROR easily let alone create mods?
PHP/mysql is almost universal, and there's a huge base of people able to create basic mods for PHP code.

So whats the next big source?
sysdev sounds like the real deal

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
Sysdev is the only project that released some files publicly and looks quite promising to me!
For the people that want ruby in it should remember the Hydraproject! Why is that one not in the poll? But I don't have the idea that much development is going on there....:whistling
We have to be patient and we will find out....
-
Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
SysDev, and I'm basing my decision strictly on the fact that the project has a cooler name than "Project Gazelle"
-
Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
As a big fan of What I think that Gazelle is better.
-
Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
-
Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
my vote doesnt go to either of them.
As i would like to start a site with jsp as the front end and the back end running in servlets.
i dont think anything else is more secure than this.
i bet on it.

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
Another topic from March dug up today. That makes two..

Re: [ :: So Whats The Next Revolutionary Torrent Source :: ]
Oh yes; I remember reading about The Hydra Project. Sounded quite interesting, actually.

Yeah,I had forgotten about that. Are there any updates on it's progress?
