=== aMule === On 18 August 2003, shortly after the incident involving Ted R. Smith, [[aMule]] (meaning "another Mule" and later "All-platform Mule") was forked from the xMule source code due to major disagreements. aMule's official website stated that "relations between the two projects are sadly in a rather sorry state",<ref>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.amule.org/wiki/XMule |title=xMule |work=AMule Project wiki |access-date=2021-07-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200203212521/http://wiki.amule.org/wiki/XMule |archive-date=2020-02-03 }}</ref> whereas xMule's stated that "aMule is geared more towards the present end-user, while xMule is more about long-term extensibility and viability", and drew comparisons to the different coding philosophies behind [[Internet Explorer]] and [[Mozilla]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.xmule.ws/phpnuke/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=2 |title=The Coding Philosophies of xMule vs aMule |access-date=2006-07-23 |work=xMule |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061008054011/http://www.xmule.ws/phpnuke/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=2 |archive-date=October 8, 2006 }}</ref> aMule has added the support for Windows and MacOS.
