Bram Cohen, the creator and lead developer of the BitTorrent protocol, has said BitTorrent 2 is lower priority than his other projects.Features which Cohen plans to include in BitTorrent 2, including distributed tracking with DHT and UDP to improve transfer efficiency, have already been implemented into the Azureus BitTorrent client.
However, in his interview, Cohen insists his client remains the superior of the two,
“The latest version of the BitTorrent client does all the really important things, it does queuing – it has much nicer queuing than Azureus does – and of course there is the BitTorrent core, which is much better than Azureus’ core, in terms of just raw performance and stability
