Replying off list, sorry.
no problem.
I wonder if it would be against SuSE's policy to put the DVD iso up on a torrent since it has some licenced software on it? You may want to ask the SuSE rep about it. I for one would be more likely to download the DVD iso than the CD iso's.
far as i know the same laws apply to it as to the cds -- by a copy and distribute it around the office -- i just can't charge for it and i never would. i actually had a torrent for the 9.2 dvd but the community never showed much excitement for it -- ala nobody stuck around to seed it after they downloaded it. it was too big for my mediocre upload speed to sustain as a meaningful torrent so i killed it when i saw it reach zero leeches. in light of that lackluster community involvement for the full 9.2 dvd i'm not likely to make another full-dvd torrent. a 32-bit only mod dvd of 9.2 was very popular however, but i didn't make it and the guy who did it then said he probably won't thin time.
I am not sure you have been on the list I have been for 4-5 years and I will admit that I have rubbed some the wrong way but for the most part most are good people and this list will always need fresh people with fresh ideas on to install/configure something for someone. Stick around it is fun at times.
thanks ken. unless there's an odd twist of events and i end up in prison or something equally drastic i'll be around for awhile. :-) stephen
