I've been trying to summarize my last week's worth of research into HFSC and IFB. Being neither a developer nor a mathematician, I found most of the existing documentation daunting and am truly grateful for the help I received on this list to understand the technologies. I do not currently have a blog to post this research and so was thinking of posting it to this list so that it could be archived and searchable for other poor sysadmin types like me to save them the days of struggling to get their practical heads around the concepts. However, since this is probably a 15 page or so document, I realized this could be quite rude to those on dial up or metered connections. Would it be appropriate to post my summary here? Thanks - John
