[R-390] Distribution of the Y2K R390 manual

[Kenneth]

I don't know if any of you have played with bit-torrent, which is a method
of file sharing.  Using it you can transfer enormous files in a short time.
Depending on how many have "seeded" the file is how fast it can be
transferred. The thing that makes it so fast is you down load small parts
all at the same time, the more people downloading the faster it is.  When
you start the download not only do you download from the seeds but also from
everyone else who is downloading, so while you are downloading a file this
same file is being uploaded to whom ever is loading it, and so on.  A number
of us could seed the Y2K manual in this mode and it would make it much
easier for people to download it. Azureus is considered by many to be the
best software for Bit-Torrent, in fact this is the one NASA uses to
distribute its freeware.  What do you think of this?
