... "The developers and much of the myth community have made it clear that torrents are NOT supported, not least because we want the machines and the project that we spent so much time working on to remain to free of legal burdens." ...
This is really truly such an unfortunate attitude. I really appreciate this patch. Many other myth users including yourself I'm sure appreciate this patch. Bit torrent is not illegal technology. No lawyer has yet to go after Bram Cohen. No lawyer has yet to go after me. In fact, I don't think you could ask for a better poster-child for the legal torrent community as the maintainer of this project than myself (well, maybe Bram Cohen or the etree.org people) and what I have done with prodigem.com (a bit torrent hosting service for legal creative commons content). To avoid the controversy of even discussing the words torrent and Myth in the same sentence is kow-towing to the MPAA and is a little spineless. Go take a look at the frontpage of lokitorrent.com. Hoax or not, it says it all: There are websites that provide legal downloads. This is not one of them. Well, I run one of "them". Others run "them" too. There's lots of good legal stuff out there and to not even tolerate discussion out of fear is silly. Sure you can say that I can create my own mailing list and perhaps I should, but it's really too bad that the same base group of people can't make use of existing resources to discuss relavant software.
