- Active Rust product: eMuleBB Rust. Retain
emulebb-rustfor repository and technical identifiers. Describe it as the active eD2K/Kad beta: public0.1.0-beta.2, working toward Beta 3, not as a stable release. - Current planning board: eMuleBB Roadmap.
- Historical release bundle: eMuleBB Suite applies to the shipped
0.7.3MFC/aMuTorrent bundle, existing artifact names, and historical plans.

Repository Labels¶
| Repository | Public description |
|---|---|
emulebb |
Stable Windows eD2K/Kad client on the maintained 0.7.x line |
emulebb-rust |
eMuleBB Rust, the active Rust eD2K/Kad client; public Beta 2 working toward Beta 3 |
ed2k-server |
Sole local deterministic eD2K test server; upstream-aligned Rust fork |
amule |
Managed official aMule upstream; interoperability and protocol-parity reference |
Where newcomers could confuse a fork with its upstream, state that it is
unofficial and link to the upstream project. Existing release artifacts keep
their published names; this cleanup does not rename tags, packages, executable
files, or the 0.7.3 bootstrapper.
