        How you remove obsolete content from the public download pool is a
        whole different question; in this system, I'm only interested in how
        you keep pointless garbage out of the public download pool altogether.
        For managing the size of the pool and the "sell-by date" of content, a
        different system would need to be used.
        
        You can, of course, observe that even when the size of the pool is
        limited and obsolete entries removed - the system lends itself to
        certain abuses! And those, of course, mean you need different systems
        to manage the abuse potential. And it goes on like that, until you get
        to the point where the flaws and failures of the system aren't big
        enough to merit inclusion in the budget and the schedule because you
        have better things to do.
        
        You know. Just like any other project.
