Is "Bittorrent" something different from bittorrent? Honestly, I think this has been said before- but if a set of data available via bittorrent is not popular enough that someone decides to mirror it with http, thats just too bad. Of course, now I'm thinking about whether its possible to use a combination of fuse, iso9660, bittorrent, and yum to provide a software repository distribution mechanism that doesn't rely on http mirrors with lots of space and bandwidth... (i.e. think fuse-bittorentfs with an iso9660 layer in there, and a default yum base config that plays well with such a configuration. Probably too much overhead in there, but it sounds tempting to me) -dmc/jdog ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a PS3 game guru.
