It seems to be getting more popular by the day. At least, I keep
running in to it everywhere I look. lnx-bbc uses it, as well.

In fifteen minutes I'll continue my 9.1 ISO download on it, allowing
others, too.

I was getting about 13K/sec down and sharing about 15K/sec up when it
was running earlier (that uploading really bogged down my already
craptacular DSL).

As the other guy said, I'm gonna do it to share with folks. :-)
