1 Hello! I have an idea for GSoC. There is tool called eclean. It is
2 really helpful to clean unneeded distfiles. But it is very popular to
3 share the same distfiles location between number of machines via NFS.
4 And calling eclean from one machine deletes distfiles that may be
5 useful for others.
6 Idea is to create network eclean. That will gather information about
7 wanted distfiles from all machines listed in some file and then do
8 delete. Hosts file by default contains only localhost.

10 What do you think about it?
11 This is easy task, so it can be united with other gsoc idea.
