Greetings,

I thought you guys might be interested in this kind of story:

New releases made by large free software projects usually means that a lot 
of people want the new release NOW, and the recent Debian and Ubuntu 
releases are no exceptions. This writeup[1] details how we, Academic 
Computer Club at UmeƄ University[2], Sweden, managed to saturate the 
2Gbit/s of available internet capacity with a zero-currency budget.
