MetaDL, Metalink downloader with libcurl.
MetaDL (Windows, Open Source), a NSIS download plugin based on
libcurl, is used in Wubi which is a Ubuntu installer for Windows.
Hampus Wessman has added download resuming, Metalink, checksum
verification support, and is working on repair information (in
development, not in released version). Wubi downloads a Ubuntu ISO
from one mirror over FTP/HTTP and takes advantage of Metalink's
features of higher availability and increased reliability.
