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

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.
