There were concerns that the new clients to be distribution by
genx.net would not come with source code, but it appears they have
changed their mind. This is a message from a fellow at genx.net sent
to the rsacrack@vex.net mailing list. If you are on the rsacrack team

To answer the most frequent questions I'll receive from this mail:
o New clients will be available early this week.
o New proxies will be available for each platform the clients support.
o We're supporting over 52 OS/hardware platform combinations, with
and without SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 support.
o The client binaries on ftp.genx.net (when they're put back there,
/pub/crypto/rc5) are -significantly- faster than most people will
be able to squeeze out of compiling the source code. There are many
reasons for this which I don't want to get into at this point.
o Source code for the new client and proxies -will- be distributed,
at a date not decided upon yet.
o Source code should be used mainly for reference only, as the binaries
we provide on our FTP site will certainly almost always be faster.
o New clients provide additional features, such as downloading of
keyblock space (up to 15 * (16 ^ 7) keys).
