Re: GPL
With the GPL, if you were to say modify someone elses code, and all you did was added a check for a dll file or something, and if it doesn't exist run as normal, otherwise let the dll take control, would the dll now become a program of its own? Or would it also be covered by the licence of the orig...

I prefer to use a Tiger Tree hash as opposed to, say, an SHA1 tree hash because the TTH (calculated with, if not always storing all the leaves down to, a 1kB block size) will allow compatibility with other users of Bitzi's code/algorithms.

The solution to the problem with cheating clients might be to have (super-)trusted clients, either ops or a bot, which seeds the rating server with ratings that are correct: http://www.advogato.org/trust-metric.html The problem here is that their model of a attack is different from this attack as ne...

Hashes. Hashes. Hashes and MP3 info. It seems that an XML of sorts might be really nice to give information on a file - hash, hash of just the audio part of mp3s (so people who retag [like me] can still be alternate sources), possibly ID3 tag information, AVI codecs, bitrates, image resolution, etc...

Meanwhile, if someone (GargoyleMT?) could take a peek at BCDC and determine whether a queue could be implemented in a snap (especially if some nifty algorithm could be use to "bump" clients with good ratings to better positions) this'd help, because we probably need to do some distributed work to g...
