THIS PROJECT IS LOOKING FOR A NEW MAINTAINER

It's been a long time we could not find the time to work on this, and really, the implementation of the old architecture work 'good enough' for most our daily needs.

I believe there are a lot of good ideas and wonderfull design in butter that we wish would get to life, but we have to be honest to ourselves: we will probably not be the ones that will push it through anymore.

Cheers, and thanks for all the fish.

Butter

This in butter-next-gen ! based on react, redux and electron ! Allow any user to easily watch movies through torrent streaming, without any prerequisites.

Versioning

For transparency and insight into our release cycle, and for striving to maintain backward compatibility, Butter will be maintained according to the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible.

Releases will be numbered with the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<build>

Constructed with the following guidelines:

• A new major release indicates a large change where backward compatibility is broken.
• A new minor release indicates a normal change that maintains backward compatibility.
• A new patch release indicates a bugfix or small change which does not affect compatibility.
• A new build release indicates this is a pre-release of the version.
