:A powerful mathematical discourse on statistical probability in the
:world of Par repair. So - it presumably boils down to saying that
:always posting the maximum number of Pars will ensure an efficacious
:repair? This number is going to be a certain percentage of the whole
:unrared file - I wonder what that should be? Around 10% perhaps?

10% would be way too much. Setting the 'Source Block Count' slider to maximum
will ensure that all of the PAR2 blocks are Universal and so they can go
anywhere they are needed, on an individual basis. Have you ever seen an NSP
trumpet less than 99% completion? That would indicate that 1% PAR2s should be
adequate. (In the real world, perhaps 1-2% might be more realistic.) The smaller
the yEnc line setting, the more articles in the post. Using the 20892 article
post above, 1% would be 209 blocks. I would probably pick 255 blocks to create
from the 'Powers of Two Minus One' series.

:Interesting that all the 'Naked' Rars are missing the Rar file
:extension. However I was able to add the Rar extension and the files
:then looked  ok - I was able to open one and could see the file
:contents displayed.

I probably would have just used HJ Split.

: I thought for a minute that Othila had just used a file splitter like
:HJ Split. I have seen this before with posts where the earlier rars
:show the rar extension but the latter ones don't but nevertheless the
:whole post assembles without a problem. However, I've never seen an
:entire post without any file extensions before.
:
:I must commend Othila on her/his post. I hope this is the start of an
:illustrious career - presumably 'Naked' disc two will soon be on it's
:way?

One should always be optimistic!

:Regards, Hubchy
