The only notable change is a license revision. Be conservative and
forbid CDROM distribution; neither jolan@ nor I quite understand the
relevant section in the "plain English" synopsis, much less the
actual legalese.
BitTorrent is a tool for distributing files. Whenever more than one
person is downloading at once they send pieces of the file(s) to each
other, thus relieving the central server's bandwidth burden. Even with
many simultaneous downloads, the upload burden on the central server
remains quite small, since each new downloader introduces new upload
capacity.
