Dear eMule-Users,

today ten years ago, eMule came to be. A decade . What are ten years in the internet and tech sphere?
Let's see: 10 years and 20 months ago, eDonkey2000 was released. 7 months before eMule, the first iPod hit the stores. 2 years after eMule Facebook was founded and Youtube didn't exist for another year. A decade ago the most used home desktop OS was Windows 98, AOL was a common ISP and mobile phones were used to make calls instead of shooting birds around :)

So times sure change, but eMule trudges along like any good mule would do. And so we are happy to celebrate its 10th birthday today. It wouldn't have been possible without the support of countless people over the years, starting at you our users to the translators, debuggers, board moderators, modders, supporters, graphic artists and of course the developers who have joined and moved on over the years. Thank you.

How will eMule's journey continue? We hope to continue working on eMule to keep it running and up-to-date. This means for the most part we will fix existing bugs which pop up, make sure eMule works well on new released versions of Windows, implement detail improvements to its core mechanics and interface and react on upcoming events in the Kad network like fighting spam. We do not expect to make many major changes in eMule anymore, like we did when adding Kad because eMule has become a mature software and the development time available is not as plentiful as it was 5 years ago anymore. In this spirit we hope to release the next version in a few months.

So lets look ahead to the next 10 years - after all, mules can get well over 50 years old :)

Your eMule Team

Nice short review.


We made also one of our own its a little bit longer and we managed to placed it at as good visible location on the Internets (Torrent Freak):

On May 13th, 2002 a new filesharing client called eMule entered into our world of sharing. Ten years later we’d like to take this anniversary as an opportunity to look back at some major technical achievements of filesharing applications since then and what might come in the years ahead. With further innovation, even the mighty BitTorrent can be improved to become impossible to shut down.

It's not really a review you wrote there, David, more like a nice story around some general developments in file-sharing as well as your new client and it's quite a shame you exploit eMule's birthday for that. The article just uses eMule and its contribution to file-sharing as an opener but does not elaborate its real significance for the users.

Anyway, happy birthday, eMule! May your fame not be exploited by those who deem you obsolete. Or in the words of a rather famous GDR politician "Vorwärts immer; rückwärts nimmer!" ("Always onwards, never backwards!")

I am an emule-web.de member and fan! Hate me or people will get suspicious about you! Ever wondered if it's all worth the trouble?

No, there will not be a new version of my mods. No, I do not want your PM. No, I am certain, use the board and quit sending PMs. No, I am not kidding, there will not be a new version of my mods just because of YOU asking for it!

亲爱的电骡用户,

十年前的今天,电骡诞生了。第一个十年。十年对于互联网和技术领域意味着什么?
让我们回顾下:10年前的今天再推前20个月,电驴(eDonkey2000)发布了。而在电骡诞生前7个月,第一部iPod震撼发布。电骡诞生2年以后,Facebook创立了,而Youtube还需要再等待1年才出现。十年前,大多数家用桌面操作系统还是Windows 98,AOL还只是一家普通的ISP(互联网服务提供商),并且手机主要被用来打电话而不是“发射小鸟” :)(译者注:或者是拍摄飞禽?我理解为玩怒鸟 :P )。


不错,时代在改变,但电骡依然像头吃苦耐劳的骡子一样跋涉前行。所以今天我们非常高兴的庆祝它的第10个生日。没有这些年来无数人们的支持就没有这一切,从我们的用户,到我们的翻译人员,测试人员,论坛管理员,版主,支持人员,图形设计师,当然还有我们的开发人员,在这些年来无论你们何时加入或者离开,感谢你们!


电骡的旅行将会如何继续?我们希望继续为其工作并保持它的运行和更新。这意味着最重要的部分是先处理掉那些冒出来的bug,保证电骡在新版Windows系统上的运行良好,完成核心技术和界面的重大改进,并应对Kad网络面临的问题例如垃圾信息。我们暂不希望对电骡进行重大的改动,例如当初添加Kad网络那样,因为电骡已经成为一个成熟的软件,并且可用在开发上的时间不再像5年前那样充裕。基于此我们希望下个版本能够在几个月后发布。


所以请展望下一个十年,毕竟骡子的寿命能超过50岁呢。 :)


你的电骡开发小组

Didn't logged in for quite some times,
But I had to do to thank all of you one more time.

10 years of sharing and discovering, was really great, and it's still great, every day.
Unfortunately way less time for discovery... But my Mule keeps running as hell.

What a stubborn animal ;o) Proud of it.


Cheers guys ! Happy Decentralized Birthday :+1: :flowers: Posted Image

Happy birthday eMule and thanks to all developers for this great piece of software!

And thank you to all the active users whose fidelity brings life to eMule. And to all that bring support in this forum (and other fora too).

yay! 10 years!

would be nice to read some nterviews with developers etc. from back then somewhere - would they have expected such a long life for p2p /ed2k / eMule itself ? and whatever they feel like talking about.

Maybe also a "What is *** doing nowadays ?"
