Hello.

I did not know where to send this to, that is why you are reading this email, 
hopefully.
As a daily user of LibreOffice and the BitTorrent-protocol, I am happy to share 
a little bandwidth for this awesome project.
Recently, I stumbled upon a weird failure of your BitTorrent-tracker 
(http://tracker.documentfoundation.org:6969/announce). Using the most recent 
version of BitTorrent/µTorrent, its status changes from "working" to "Your 
client's "key" parameter and the key we have for you in the in our database do 
not match."
This does not happen when using BitTorrent-clients based on the 
libtorrent-library (such as Deluge or qBittorrent), Tixati or µTorrent 2.2.1.

To replicate the failure, I used µTorrent 3.4.7 (Build 42330). As written 
above, it works fine with µTorrent 2.2.1, although, besides some changes in the 
UI and probably in the core, nothing big should have changed.

Seen from the point of distribution, many people are affected by this bug, as 
they use the most current version of µTorrent/BitTorrent. This also may affect 
the working transfer between the seeders and peers, as the tracker cannot 
coordinate the seeder to the peer, prevented by the bug mentioned before.

Is there an explanation for this status occurring?
To my knowledge (in short), it only affects µTorrent version 3+ or BitTorrent 
7.5+.


Best regards,
Henrik Worrmann
