Version 2.2 is out and available for download either through the internal update or at source forge. The Azurues site was down earlier so I am not certain about its availabilty.

*update* Azureus 2.4.0.2

What's new:
1.1 Faster Crash Recovery
By default Azureus will now only check parts of the file that were being actively downloaded the last time resume data was saved. The old behaviour of rechecking the whole file can be re-enabled via 'Files' configuration.

1.2 Bug fixes and performance improvements
Notable fixes:
Occassionally encrypted connections would send invalid data
Startup error 'no class found' fixed.
Data transfer to slow peers improved.

Note: New Windows launcher might require allowing "Azureus.exe" Internet access in your software firewall.

I missed some updates on the v2.5.x.x releases.
The latest version is 2.5.0.4 that was released on Jan. 25 , 2007.

Windows Vista users, please get java (only the JRE) here.
What's new in 2.5.0.4
2.5.0.4 is a maintenance release to fix up a few minor, but relatively annoying problems with 2.5.0.2.

What's new in 2.5.0.2
1. What's new in Azureus 2.5.0.2

1.1 Less memory footprint
Most noteably, torrent piece information is now removed from memory when not used.

1.2 Minimum # of Simultaneous Active Downloads
The ability to always have at least x number of active downloads running.

1.3 New columns

* Custom user comment (My Torrents view)
* File extension (Files view)


1.4 Faster startup times on large lists
Startup times when Azureus has a large list of torrents is now faster (up to 400% faster in some cases).
Some plugins may negate this optimization if the plugin accesses every torrents information immediately at startup.

1.5 Other

* Various user interface improvements.
* Bug fixes.
* Less memory leaks.


1.6 Java 5.0 note
Java 5, Update 10 fixes a handle leak commonly seen in Azureus installations. It is highly recommended that you upgrade to this version or a later version. You can download the update at java.com.
