    If I try to download a swarm of a Folder I and my friend have (without having downloaded it from each other and with different names) OS actually downloads the files instead of recognizing that all the files inside are already on my HDD (and yes, they are shared and hashed) ;-)

    From the technical paper: "Shared files (or groups of files) are named in
    OneSwarm using the SHA-1 hash of their name and content."

    I might be wrong, but if the hash is based on the name as well, then it's not a "bug" from that point of view.
