I believe that the idea of adding torrent support to eMule should be reassessed and take into account all that has changed over the years and the current state of KAD and ed2k networks in relation to p2p as a whole.
I believe not, eMule is as of now the only major Ed2k client, those it has a responsibility to be the best ed2k client it can be.
Adding additional networks will not further this goal, it might even hurt it.
All multi network clients to date are not superior in supporting any of the networks they support.
The only thing that changed since 2004 is that the typical Asymmetric Internet connection has twice the Speed on the Upload channel as it head on the Download channel back then.
There is a big change coming the Move to IPv6 but this is still some time ahead.
So the right way to go would be to create eider a fork or a independent client for ed2k and Bt alike, only after it proves its superiority it could release emule form its responsibilities as the keeper of the ed2k network.
Those it would have to be the first multi network client that provides a superb support of all networks it has implemented what is quite a demanding task to achieve.
