Add my another 2 and make it 4. Please discuss some practical ideas, rather than wasting bandwidth on hypothetical theory.
This list already had full quota of hypothetical theory in past.
Hmm... i would agree with you about the building a satellite bit, but doing something for getting ISO's over a satellite transmission does seem like a cool thing to do. Who knows, NASA runs Debian on some of its space shuttles, they wouldn't mind an apt-get update(from a MISSION CRITICAL repository of course) in the near future :-)
The interesting thing is, this would REALLY RE-DEFINE the terms Universe Repository and Multiverse Repository :D
