YES
I've just downloaded beta 3 overnight, and I noticed that most of the peers I was leeching from were at less than 100% download. In other words, we were all in the process of downloading/uploading to each other. Of the peers who had 100% of the download, only two were seeding me, suggesting that the remainder had switched off their upload capability as soon as they had got the whole file. My upload is still running, and will continue to do so until I have given back to the community the 4GB I got.
Why stop? If everyone follows that criteria, the pipe will flow empty. I have seeded 8+ copies of betas 1 and 2 and will leave 3 seeding until RC1 is released, and then move to RC1.....
Currently uploading to clients in Spain, Japan, UK and Turkey.
Hopefully, that will improve everyone's experience.
If you don't stop...
You're absolutely right, I won't stop. I'm actually currently seeding beta2 and beta3 - about 8GB gone up the pipe ;) -- Bob openSUSE 10.2 x86_64, Kernel 2.6.18.8-0.5, KDE 3.5.6 r31.4 Intel Celeron 2.53GB, 2GB DDR RAM, nVidia GeForce 7600GS -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
