The 1.7 series has been about reach: BitTorrent-first downloads, LAN library sharing, mirror mode, and surviving without the internet. 1.7.3 closes the loop by making all of it dependable — downloads that can't wedge or blank the page, seeding that genuinely works and tells the truth, and settings that mean what they say. Both open field reports are fixed. And the almanac easter egg grew into a real instrument, if you know where to look.

Highlights

• The downloads page stays put. With a download running, the UI's own status polling could trip the rate limiter and blank the panel (#30). Fixed at the root — it holds up behind reverse proxies and with a password set.
• Downloads can't hang forever. A torrent with peers but no data now falls back to HTTP instead of sitting at "0% · 0.0 MB/s".
• Seeding actually works now — and survives restarts. Ratio caps were silently killing every capped seed the first time a peer took a piece (an aria2 semantics trap; only uncapped mirror seeds ever survived). Zimi now enforces your cap itself — against lifetime upload, across restarts, booked every 30 seconds — and keeps its own ledger of intended seeds, restoring any that go missing at startup. Stopping a seed on purpose sticks.
• Settings govern live torrents. Changing your seed ratio, toggling seeding, or flipping Mirror applies to running seeds immediately — not just the next download. The BT status light no longer shows green over a dead engine, and deleting a ZIM stops seeding it.
• Central Europe gets its own clock (#28 follow-up). Germany, Poland, Austria and friends no longer resolve to London time.
• The almanac grew up. Pick any day and the whole page follows — moon, sun times, sky, history. A star chart you can scrub through time and drag across the Earth, the Sun's yearly figure-eight, moon phases on the calendar, and an international On This Day feed. Under the hood, a full accuracy pass: the hero moon now faces the Sun, eclipses stopped inventing visibility regions, and anything the math can't truly support is no longer claimed.
