Having "no time for them" goes completely against our intentions in having a
free and open sharing network like gnutella in the first place. Having
both time and files for them is what we intended all along.

Freedom to share means having the freedom to control what and how
much we share, and even freedom not to share if we so choose. Let's
respect each others' freedoms and choices here.
Nice statement Aaron!!
