Well, that might be very easy to do with common files. But im sure you
realize that releases or rare files are not that easy to come up with.
At least I have had files lie in my queue for days and not a working
source was found. Im pretty positive Im not the only one. Plus, I don't
know if it is still standard server behaviour but if I recall correctly
from lugdunum changelogs, at some point in the (not so distant) past,
the servers only sent part of the sources (20%?) to mldonkeys. I admit
that it might be overkill in some cases, but in others is just plain
useful.


Thank your for your time,
