My concern with jigdo is with how many people use it? It seems silly to
host both torrent and jigdo (as much of this letter points out the
benefits of switching to jigdo, those benefits disappear if we simply
add jigdo to the mix. Most people already have bittorrent. Lets say we
were going to give Jigdo a trial run for Fedora 9 and we were going to
judge jigdo a success if a certain % (compared to bittorrent) use
jigdo. What % would that be?
Some people CAN'T use bittorrent because of firewalls. There should
be no reason at all why anyone couldn't use Jigdo, because it uses
standard FTP or HTTP to download the slices. There are clients
available for all the important OSes.
Those that can't use bittorrent can use the mirrors as well.
