In the course of running BSD, I have accumulated a number of 
ports/distfiles.

I also have a public ftp which I have made these available on, and I was 
wondering if there was any system for reporting a possible source for other 
users who need these files.

Also, I was wondering what everyone thinks about working a gnutella 
interface in to the distfile search. (nothing special, just a simple 
?automatic? interface to look for the file by name and sha1 hash) I would 
think that such an improvement could make the distfile search %100 
effective.

All comments/flames welcome.
Peace, Love, and Anarchy
