DILC is now developing a torrent tracker to serve the needs of its constituents. BitTorrent distributes files efficiently and encourages the sharing of limited bandwidth.

Possible Uses of the Tracker

The tracker may

• facilitate the sharing of class projects that involve files larger than 32Mb (the limit of UVLe upload per file)
• provide alternative means of distributing DILC contents
• help distribute official UP media files
• help transmit coverage of public events at the University

Guidelines

• No users shall upload, post, transmit any content that infringes any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy rights of any person or entity.
• The tracker shall not be used to violate UP's AUP.
