FrostWire Blog moved to WordPress.com

As you’ve noticed, we have moved our blog outside our official domain and out here to wordpress.com.
This is because we’ve been victims of a security exploit on an old version of wordpress.
We decided it’s better to leave the blog here where the wordpress gurus will take care of it better.

All posts and comments have been exported without any problems whatsoever.

Forums under maintenance

The amount of spam we’ve been fighting with the last weeks is overwhelming, therefore we finally made the decision to upgrade to phpBB3.
The DB migration has gone far so good.
We’re currently indexing all the posts so you can have search working fast once the forums are back up.

Up to this point we don’t know if the conversion script will help us bring the theme, we may come back with the default theme for a couple of days while we prepare phpBB3 to look the way we did on phpBB2.

As soon as we’re post-able we’ll be back up.

FrostWire now available on Gentoo Linux’s Portage package system

We want to give thanks to William L. Thomson Jr from Gentoo for making FrostWire available to people running Gentoo ~arch or unstable ~x86 or ~amd64.

If you are a Gentoo Linux user you can now just do:

emerge frostwire

And as William says:

it will bring in all deps, compile, install, make desktop menu entries, launcher, etc

If you’re interested here’s the package

About Gentoo

The Gentoo Linux operating system (pronounced /ˈdÊ’É›ntuː/) is a Linux distribution based on the Portage package management system. The development project and its products are named after the Gentoo penguin. Gentoo package management is designed to be modular, portable, easy to maintain, flexible, and optimized for the user’s machine. Packages are normally built from source code, continuing the tradition of the ports collection, although for convenience, some large software packages are also available as precompiled binaries for various architectures.

User luisdrk from Caracas,Venezuela has posted this picture on flickr. Pretty cool stuff. it’s actually a parody of this picture by Jesus Molina.

It’s really funny because we had our inspiration from a similar source, we looked for the words “frost wire” in flickr, and we saw frozen barbed wires, this is the one that caught our eye and then we talked to a great graphic designer who did the logo for us.
