Package: apt
Version: 0.5.5.1
Severity: wishlist
Debian depends a great deal on the generosity of its academic and private
partners to provide all the bandwidth for hosting apt's
extensive software archive. Ease of installation of this enormous variety of
software is one of Debian's biggest strengths and the
list of packages continues to grow.
As more and more packages grow in size and releases of unstable software see
thousands of users upgrading daily, perhaps
bittorrent could be integrated into apt for certain packages at the servers
discretion. The nano package probably doesn't need it,
but OpenOffice might.
I don't code so I'm afraid all I can do is ask. How severe are the technical
challenges?
