We didn't even conclude a previous discussion [1] (if we did then it's all in the negative), and now there is one of those tools in the repositories? Honestly, I don't think this is fair practice as it undermines the initiatives of others before who did not get the green for stuff like this, and it ignores the importance of general consensus. Given that it is such a grey area, there should be an official discussion and possibly a vote. Now there is no reason why things like slurpy and other download/upload helpers shouldn't get in.

It seems to have been moved from [community] to AUR again. Heiko
