FrostWire 5.3.4 has one new feature, YouTube video search and downloads. It's now Windows 8 compatible and lots of issues on the Windows installer were fixed that didn't let many users complete the installation process. The new windows installer will make sure you're running Java 7, with improved java performances that make FrostWire even faster.
It also updated the Spanish translation among other things, here's the full changelog.

FrostWire 5.3.5 is now being built, it betters Android integration, now you will be able to send file from the desktop to android devices with drag and drop on the Library tree.
Translations for Dutch, French and Norwegian have been updated so far and more translations should be updated before the next release.
==
FrostWire 5.3.3 OUT!
Serious improvements in search: Fixes 100% CPU usage issues and search query analysis has been improved for better matches.
Upgraded to support the new TPB magnet only search results.
Improved Magnet link support, now with UT_METADATA BitTorrent extension support (we've sent our patch to the Azureus/Vuze team so that all Vuze clients can also have better magnet link support)
==
FrostWire 5.3.2 out for Windows and Mac (Linux build coming very very soon, doing some tests with Java 7 on Linux)
(Also FrostWire for Android 0.9.5 is out http://frostwire.com/android - Test together if you can, it's a lot of fun)
Please test throughly on your Operating system. The quicker we get bugs or a thumbs up from you guys, the faster we can release to the public.
Here’s what’s coming on the next update.
Better search results and usability Users coming from FrostWire 4 have complained about ease of use and search results. We’ve made our search algorithm and user interface friendlier so that you won’t get lost finding the files that you need. We’re bringing a bit of the FrostWire 4 feel to the search form and you’ll have even more control of the search results you see as they are retrieved.
Sending files to friends. No need to upload your files to sketchy websites that are a pain in the ass for your friend to find the download button among so many ads. Not only you can send files as big as your computer can hold, you can also send entire folders and subfolders. The more friends you send your files, the faster they get it because they collaborate. You and your friends make a little cloud when sending files to each other with FrostWire.
Mobile Integration You can now browse, stream or download the files made public by Android devices nearby. Best part, no cables necessary. Samsung users on Mac will love this, as we’ve experienced impossible to fix issues with the Galaxy Tab 10″ which just won’t share files even with the Kies app that Samsung provides.
FrostWire for Android implements an open, simple, HTTP/JSON based file sharing protocol that ANYBODY can work with, so we hope to see Web developers, and why not even iOS developers making clients that can talk to FrostWire for Desktop and FrostWire for Android. And if nobody builds them we’re trying to free some time later in the year to make a light version of FrostWire for iPhone/iPod/iPad so that you can send files from your iOS device to your PC, Mac, Linux or Android devices, all wirelessly (no need for USB and iPhoto, no need to cut your videos or to downgrade their quality to upload them to youtube if all you want is to send that HD video to your mom’s)
Those and a lot of other features and fixes are ready. If you cannot wait to try these, you can always download the sources and build FrostWire yourself in two steps (ant; ./run)
