Hi,
although I don't have time to carefully read JEP-0052 about file transfer,
maybe I can give my end-user view on file transfer and file sharing. I
hope it helps, if not, then I've put ideas in order for myself ;).
File transfer:
--------------
- ability to set speed of download/upload
- resumable
- break (or maybe this can be implemented as cancel + resume, I thought
I already saw this idea somewhere)
File sharing:
-------------
A lot of my friends wouldn't know how to set up an ftp-server, but a lot
of them use ICQ to share files with their contactlist. For the moment I
don't like ICQ's file sharing (apart from the fact that I don't like
ICQ), because it seems to lack some features.
- I would like to see/notified who's downloading from me...
- Ability to set speed of download/upload
- I would like to share a file or directory A with user jklm at server.com
and qqsdf at server.net, file or directory B with uip at server.org and
nothing else with my other contacts.
Now I'm wondering if there are people who would like to see more
features than the ones I'm proposing (maybe some that I "passively"
(what a word) like too)...
greetings
Mattias.
