Hi,
How about someone making a daemon that shares via some p2p protocol the /var/cache/zypp/packages/* contents amongst all local networked computers, so that what one downloads from outside can be reused by any other opensuse computer in the same network, automatically?
Don't look at me, I have no idea how to do that ;-)

You need a SLES license to get it for free.
Well, it is similar, but it does more, and differently (like subscription control). My idea is not that. It is not a mandatory central repository, for instance, it is distributed (p2p or tiered (Greg Freemyer)), and requires access to the master download server at opensuse for each machine. But it is nice to see that the SLES people saw this need and made a software to fulfill it. It proves that my idea is not a useless thing >:-) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
