That's what sparked the thought of approaching some of the Univ. with strong
comp. sci. programs to see if any were interested in (1) using the project as
part of some undergraduate/graduate level desktop design curriculum and (2)
providing a mirror for the code. I see the benefit as many-fold, (1) TDE
benefits from the brainpower of the students and faculty involved, (2) young
minds, fresh ideas, (3) exposure of many, many more young folks to TDE/expansion
of the user base, and (4) the tangential storage and bandwidth contribution if
they pick up the project.

Best of all -- the cost...
