I strongly doubt it'll ever be possible to achieve an acceptable level of magic detection here. Even connections that aren't *tethered* could certainly have data transfer caps for one reason or another. Just assuming you can go ahead and download as many GB of updates as you like without any kind of prior warning or even notification while the download is ongoing is a really bad idea. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
