Apt-Torrent project
Hello,
I love the Debian project, and I have worked on a new development for
it: Apt-Torrent :)
Apt-Torrent is an apt proxy to the Bittorrent network. For security, the
package listing, and the .torrent files are downloaded from a regular
http server, as usual for a package, but then the whole package is
fetched via bittorrent protocol and forwarded to apt :)
At the moment there is two packages, apt-torrent itself, and
apt-torrent-server which is an helper package to build a Bittorrent
repository.
I'm running a very little repository with only official frozen-bubble
sid's package in order to test apt-torrent :) (might be very slow since
it's on my own home ADSL connection)
Here is the homepage of the project, where I've written a little
documentation too:

I would like to know what do you think of it :)
Arnaud
