MBONE for Software Distribution? 102
Warren Vosper asks: "As I sit here twiddling my thumbs, waiting for the RedHat mirror sites
to finish pulling down RH7, I ponder the need for this. Why can't we
use the MBONE to update the mirrors? I could satisy my burning
need for instant gratification *so* much sooner. Hell, why couldn't
I tune in to an MBONE broadcast from RedHat and get it at the
same time as the mirror sites? As I looked over the ancient (5-6 years
ago) online info regarding MBONE I understand that it's used mostly for video and audio, but why not software distribution?"
