when you make "x per time", you have a speed. so "%failures/%success/totals per 10 minutes" is a speed, too? >> - perhaps give a %-success estimation for user's >> information and the download success chances, but DO NOT >> cancel the download automatically based on >> the value! > >I don't think anyone was suggesting automatically >cancelling the download, but rather just estimating the >chance of success, and time remaining, and letting the user >choose whether they want to commit the resources. :) maybe i was just one step too fast. sorry. as i wrote, giving the %chance of a successful download would be okay (although the user will then stop the transfer if it gets too low, which merely is the same as when doing this automatically, leading to the same issues) _______________________________________________ devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
