> Aria2 supports Oracle's Metalink? What does this mean, supports?

[ snip redundant repost of ENTIRE announce message ]

  It means "Don't be lazy and anti-social - trim your quotes".

  Actually, it means (from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalink)

"This article is about the open standard. [ ... ] Not to be confused with
the unrelated Oracle MetaLink, Oracle Corporation's support website.

Metalink is a cross-platform and cross-application open
standard/framework/file format for programs that download, including
download managers, BitTorrent clients, Web browsers, FTP clients, and P2P
programs [ ... ]"

  So you could say it means "Don't be lazy and anti-social - trim your
quotes.  And learn how to use Google".
