Hello everyone, I'm having a look at how useful .torrent downloads could potentially be for the BSD community. I saw Andrew from http://openbsd.somedomain.net/ is basically running a complete OpenBSD mirror on his tracker, but has to seed most of the files himself. Currently I'm looking for statistics from FreeBSD FTP/HTTP download sites and mirrors to see how traffic is distributed among the files. Is everybody really only downloading the recent release or is there a broader range of things that people download? This data could be compared to the FreeBSD tracker statistics. Does anyone gather such information and would be willing to share it? Regards, Max
