Why not focus on legal downloads?  For example, a local mirror of the common Linux distributions would not only be extremely useful but also economically advantageous as it saves on outbound bandwidth and encourages more people to actually give it a try.

I'm sure that if this was actually presented in a coherent, logical fashion it may even be possible to get funding from industry (CISCO, etc).  

IIRC there was an effort to achieve this locally, I'm not sure if its still around though.

Great! Pentest in 43 seconds. Now this is what am talking about, anyone for a KDN server pleasse? 


OK, lets split this: 

1: Someone to offer space at the KDN datacenter or offer (me :-) ) Bandwidth. 
2: Someone to offer a machine with really really big space. 
3: Someone to offer time and effort to help us in setting up the server. 
4: Some guys to volunteer to support the platform and dedicate time to maintaining data, software and add manage memberships. 

We will be heading somewhere really cool. 

Cheers.

I do hope he is listening somewhere in the background. p2p is a necessary evil, and the kind of traffic it can drive to your network is super, not forgetting a development like a locally made / hosted version of something like limewire / emule. I think it would be the best utilization of resources. 

What thinks you?

I think Kai talking in a Skunkworks meeting that they can host something that is valuable, and this is it. Anyone at KDN lurking into the list?
