This is a fork of the original afpfs-ng project that has gone unmaintained for quite some time. It is so far the only available open source AFP client.

This repository includes many patches collected by the XBMC project (www.xbmc.org) as well as mine, in a bid to improve stability, performance and to implement new features.
