Comment(by davidsarah):
{{{
class NotEnoughSharesError(Exception):
"""Download was unable to get enough shares, or upload was unable to
- place 'shares_of_happiness' shares."""
+ place 'servers_of_happiness' shares."""
}}}
The description needs to be something like "or upload was unable to meet
the 'servers_of_happiness' threshold." The name of the name of the
exception is also not quite right, but I don't have a good suggestion if
it still needs to be the same exception for upload and download. Perhaps
it doesn't, in which case how about just "FailedDownloadError" and
"FailedUploadError"? Why it failed is probably not something that client
code is likely to switch based on.
