Petter E. Stokke <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License:
Package: KMLDonkey
System name: kmldonkey
Type: non-GNU
Description:
KMLDonkey is a project that aims to fully integrate the mldonkey P2P software
into the KDE desktop. It consists of various URL handlers for seamless
integration of the ed2k protocol into KDE and a lightweight GUI frontend for
the mldonkey core implemented as a KDE panel applet, with the option of
evolving into a feature complete GUI which can replace mldonkey\'s current
OCaml/Gtk+ GUI frontend on the KDE desktop, and, one hopes, add a few
improvements to the concept. Eventually, one would hope to accomplish even
tighter integration with KDE, such as a kioslave handler for mldonkey\'s
current downloads.
In addition, the project provides a library and Qt style API for communicating
with the mldonkey core, implemented using the Qt object model, which is
available for use by other software that needs to communicate with a running
mldonkey. Other language bindings for this library should eventually also be
provided.
The implementation language is C++, using the KDE/Qt libraries. Currently, the
ed2k protocol handler is written in Python, but it is to be replaced by a C++
implementation by the next upgrade release.
Target platforms should be anything KDE itself will run on, but it\'s developed
and tested chiefly on Debian GNU/Linux.
Source for the latest release version can be found at the following address:

Other Software Required:
KMLDonkey only depends on the kdelibs package (and whatever that needs to run,
including, and especially, Qt). It has been developed for KDE 3.1 and Qt 3.1.1,
but may work with earlier versions. Having mldonkey installed would also be
sensible.
