DCpp

2009-01-09T20:30:35Z

Harwick:

DC++ (sometimes written DCpp) is software that allows users on a particular network to share files with one another, much like Limewire. Unlike other P2P software, however, DC++ can be limited to a particular network. Network dependence confers two major advantages: files are transferred between users at extremely high speeds and external agencies, such as the RIAA, are not able to directly monitor on the network. Dozens of universities including [[Cornell]] have DC++ networks that often feature terabytes of data.

==Columbia's Network==

For several years, Columbia had its own DC++ network that was used by several hundred users. In October [[2004]], however, a Spectator Editorial mentioned details of the network and implored students to use it for "mature piracy." Soon thereafter, CUIT required the network to be shut down due to legal concerns. Previously, CUIT had turned a blind eye to the existence of the network. (http://74.125.95.132/search?q=cache:r5yZ7iUU7ckJ:www.columbiaspectator.com/node/44747+site:columbiaspectator.com+columbiadc&hl=en&client=safari&gl=us&strip=1)

==Future Plans==

Columbia currently doesn't have a widely used DC++ hub. According to CUIT policies, Columbia doesn't monitor network traffic. Therefore, there would be little risk in establishing a new hub, provided that it wasn't widely publicized.

Harwick: dc++

==DC++ Page==
Just made a page about DC++. It was created under "DC++", but it looks like that page is inaccessible (it re-directs to a page called "Dc" which doesn't exist). Thus, I created another page called DCpp, but that title isn't all that great. Was wondering if there was something that could be done about that.

==Message for promising new users==
I see you've made some useful contributions. If you plan on sticking around, perhaps you'd like admin privileges... so you can delete and move pages, block users, etc. No minimum commitment is expected or required. Let me know by leaving a message on this page. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:27, 24 March 2007 (EDT)
:*Before Raza took sabbatical, he wanted a top contributor statistics page. Possible? [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 01:54, 3 April 2007 (EDT)
::*I haven't yet found a "top contributor" feature. Wikipedia has lists of their top contributors, but I don't know how they compile them. I'll look into it again later on today. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 07:23, 3 April 2007 (EDT)

==Clubs==
Let's keep one wiki page for students clubs. Basic clean 3 column table. Club name (as wiki link to article), contact e-mail, website. Merge SGB and ABC into one list. Let's keep the administrative nonsense out of this. Should we combine club sports in as well, or keep it seperate, or both (merge into the list and keep a seperate article?) Because I think it might be useful to have some List of articles as well (e.g. List of Student Publications). Cleaner and more customizable than category pages. [[User:Absentminded|Absentminded]] 23:46, 24 March 2007 (EDT)
:I'm personally inclined just to use categories, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to have one big long list. It's better than the restaurant solution (ie, categorizing everything into a restaurants category and a sub-category). I'd say merge club sports into the one list. Then people can do a (Firefox) search for anything they're interested in.
:I really don't think there's any need for more specialized lists such as a list of publications. Categories are fine for that.
:If you want, we can each deal with one page. I can process ABC into a clean list, you can process SGB, and perhaps someone else will volunteer for Club Sports. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 23:51, 24 March 2007 (EDT)
::Alright, I'll get on that soon. [[User:Absentminded|Absentminded]] 11:21, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

== Using Columbia's GIF Maps ==
I've stuck one on the [[Ruggles Hall]] article. Take a look and see if we can come up with a better formatting solution.
:Looks good. I think it should come after the Google map though. Or have a look at the changes I made... I've floated it on the right. Maybe this isn't good for people will small monitors though. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 11:28, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

==email==
hey - just shot you an email - wasn't sure whether it's better to write you here or whether you still check the wikicu address. [[User:Jdipasq|Jdipasq]]
:Oh, right, thanks. I just got your email and will respond soon. -Admin
