shouldn't it be up to each system to determine what is a duplicate file and
what is not? why should the contents of my files areas influence what files
you have? that's what you appear to be saying should be done... so if i create
a file named mbse42.zip and a new official version 4.2 is hatched with the
same name, those downstream from me won't get it even though they never had it
and it only existed on my system until the new release was hatched... plus i
might be greatly upset if my mbse42.zip were overwritten causing the loss of
the information stored in it...
