What can I say, we are early adopters of technology.

Without Bit Torrent only 1/3 to 1/4 of the amount of people could have
downloaded the file 318 MB file in the same time period. Without the
new video codecs this file would be twice the size, and this would
halve the number of people again.

Both of these "hacks", and Allyn's hosting as well, are very much in
the grassroots spirit of .org!

Besides Shawn, you probably could do this in your sleep, no need to
