Hi,
sorry to chip into the discussion so awfully late. Anyway, to answer the
bandwidth question I created the following report for the ros wiki mirror.
http://ros.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/analog/
Here is the summary:
Average data downloaded: 88.75 MB/Day (=621MB/Week)
Tarball download (as stated by Brian): 11GB/Week
Greetings,
Felix
