Hi, I just joined the Group =) I love the MAGNET-URI, and Bitzi, and Shareaza. Why isn't there support for multiple sources for links? Is that coming soon?...
PROBLEM: When a user clicks a MAGNET link from a website, which adds itself as a source (xs), it starts up in the Gnutella client and begins downloading from...

-1, if you can't rely on your peer to properly fall back for you, then don't use the peer. This type of fine-grained control is best left out of Magnet. ...

-1, Even if "group" or "set" URIs are a useful concept, they should be a part of a different URI spec, not Magnet. If you want to group things together, use...
