Dear forum users,

I am currently working on an nzb usenet downloader for OSX.
The focus of the usenet clients is: easy of use, efficiency and no-nonsense approuch.

Before I release it to the public I want to do some extensive user testing with a limited number of users.

What is in this version (alfa version, features missing)
- Multi connection downloading
- yEnc encoding
- Simple but clear UI
- Optimized for OSX (32/64 bit)
- Native GUI for OSX
- Small footprint, micro (270KB at this stage)
- Low HDD usage (memory caching)

What need to be done (priority ordered)
- Persit state after restart of client
- Speed limit and display of speed
- Automatic PAR/PAR2 checking
- Conditional download of par2 files
- Automatic UNRAR


It's an early release so I need some users who want to help me test.
Please send me a PM or e-mail to opt-in, I'll be happy to send you the first version!

Some early progress screenshots:

Hope you'll want to help me with some testing!
 
promoting your own software/website is against the forum rules.

Is it really that bad here?
I am not trying to promote my software, I do not even have a site yet.
Like the first topic said I try to get some user feedback for a beta application.

If that isn't allowed: close the thread: by all means.
My apologies if I broke the forum rules.
