GTK based Gnutella client which supports the standard Gnutella
operations.
Search, download, file sharing, bandwidth limiting, host caching, as
well as some basic statistics. Now with enhanced features, such as PARQ
queueing, PFSP, DHT, push-proxies, UPnP, NAT-PMP and others, making it a
stable and fully functional graphical gnutella client for *nix systems.
An excellent way to find that hidden file on the internet that you know
exists but standard search engines do not seem to carry.

DGD is a rewrite from scratch of the LPMud server. It runs on Windows, MacOS,
BeOS and many versions of Unix.
This is the core distribution of DGD, providing all the tools needed
to implement interactive servers, for instance MUD, IRC, WWW, etc.
A reference implementation of a kernel library is provided, which can
be further built on. Normally with DGD, there is a kernel library to
define the programming environment and a database library to define the
interaction environment.
Please report bugs to <felix@dworkin.nl>.
Tor: an anonymizing overlay network for TCP
Tor is a connection-based low-latency anonymous communication system which
addresses many flaws in the original onion routing design.
Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that
want to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using
Tor can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant
messaging, IRC, SSH, and more. Tor also provides a platform on which
software developers can build new applications with built-in
anonymity, safety, and privacy features.

CenterIM is a fork of CenterICQ.
CenterIM is a text mode menu- and window-driven IM interface that supports the
ICQ2000, Yahoo!, MSN, AIM, Gadu-Gadu and IRC protocols as well as posting to
LiveJournal aggregating RSS feeds.
It allows you to send, receive, and forward messages, URLs, SMSes, contacts,
and email express messages. It also lets you set your own and fetch others'
away messages, and define external handlers for incoming events. You can mass
message-send, search for users, view users' details, maintain your contact
list directly from the program, view the message history, register a new UIN
and update your details, be informed upon receipt of email messages,
automatically set away after the defined period of inactivity, and have your
own ignore, visible, and invisible lists. It can also associate events with
sounds, make log of events, and allows arrangement of contacts into groups.
The development of CenterIM is currently quite active, but is still happy
to find more users helping with contributing bug reports, suggestions,
feedback and code.
If you're interested in joining our community, feel free to inform about our
mailing lists on the CenterIM homepage or on #centerim at the Freenode IRC.
Finch is a multi-protocol instant messaging client. It is compatible with AIM
(Oscar and TOC protocols), ICQ, MSN Messenger, Yahoo, IRC, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu,
and Zephyr networks.
Finch users can log in to multiple accounts on multiple IM networks
simultaneously. This means that you can be chatting with friends on AOL
Instant Messenger, talking to a friend on Yahoo Messenger, and sitting in an
IRC channel all at the same time.
Finch supports many features of the various networks, such as file transfer
(coming soon), away messages, typing notification, and MSN window closing
notification. It also goes beyond that and provides many unique features. A
few popular features are Buddy Pounces, which give the ability to notify you,
send a message, play a sound, or run a program when a specific buddy goes away,
signs online, or returns from idle; and plugins, consisting of text
replacement, a buddy ticker, extended message notification, iconify on away,
and more.

Net::Jabber
The Jabber Instant Messaging project is an Open Source project seeking
to provide a complete cross protocol messaging solution. The problem
with current IM solutions is that they are all proprietary and cannot
talk to each other. Jabber seeks to get rid of those barriers by
allowing a Jabber client to talk with an AOL user, or an IRC chat room,
or any number of other programs.

Net::Jabber is a collection of Perl modules that provide a Perl Developer
access to the Jabber protocol. Using OOP modules we provide a clean
interface to writing anything from a full client to a simple protocol
tester.
Serveez is a server framework. It provides routines and help for
implementing IP based servers (currently TCP, UDP and ICMP). It is also
possible to use named pipes for all connection oriented protocols. We
think it is worth the effort because many people need server
functionality within their applications. However, many people
experience problems with select()- or poll()-loops, and with
non-blocking operations. This application demonstrates various aspects
of advanced network programming in a portable manner. You can use it for
implementing your own servers or for understanding how certain network
services and operations work. The package includes a number of servers
that work already: an HTTP server, an IRC server, a Gnutella spider and
some others. One of the highlights is that you can run all protocols on
the same port. The application itself is single threaded but it uses
helper processes for concurrent name resolution and ident lookups.
