Thanks for your help, it is most appreciated. The best way to help with sharing files, especially if you have a decent upload speed, is to download and share all the files listed on the magnet link page (click on magnet and ed2k links link from the main p2p page). Magnet links are provided for all english builds, and the source code. We haven't officially started sharing other languages yet on non-bittorrent networks because there hasn't been the demand for them. In any case, if you can share all of these files on the 3 networks that shareaza connects to, that would be grand, because seeds for the rarer files can be hard to find, especially since they started making two builds for each platform.
You will notice that in the magnet and ed2k links the filenames of the openoffice.org downloads have been altered slightly so that they can be found through searches on general p2p networks (for example "OOo_2.0.1_Win32Intel_install.exe" has been changed to " OpenOffice.org_2.0.1_Win32Intel_install.exe")
The other thing you can do to help out is keep sharing only the latest version of the openoffice.org software, that is update the version you are sharing each time, and delete the old one. You can keep up to date on what is happening with the p2p project and new openoffice.org versions by subscribing to the [email protected] mailing list (send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you havent already).
Thanks again for your help, and feel free to email me with any questions you may have on the p2p project.
Cheers,
Adrian

Hi,
I'm not sure if I'm "officially" registered to participate in the P2P Project. Currently, I've been downloading different types of the latest stable release through Bittorent, and since I'm using Shareaza, it is listed on the Gnutella2 and original Gnutella network, and eDonkey.
If there are any different types of files through P2P distribution that are there, that I can distribute, a list would be just great. I have a lot of room on my computer, so I'll download anything, no matter that disk space. So far I have these files seeded, and are constantly ready from me:
OOo_2.0.1_Win32Intel_install.exe
ooo_201_allplatforms_20051222_extras.iso
ooo_201_allplatforms_20051222_install.iso
OOo_2.0.1_src.tar.gz
I've joined the main Distribution project as an Observer, and I just want to help as much as possible with the distributing, because that is what I would be best at doing for this (amazingly developed) project.
Thanks.
