gnome-bittorrent is an unsatisfactory bittorrent client

[R S Gill]

I would like to suggest Ubuntu use the g3 Torrent client 
(http://g3torrent.sourceforge.net/).

The client is written in Python but so far only windows binaries have 
been released. I think it balances simplicity with advanced features 
that one could take advantage of.

Another bonus is that it doesn't seem to hog resources like some other 
bittorrent clients do.

Just my 0.02.
