"Right now, chunks count as distinct uploads, so someone uploading one file in chunks may generate 50/50, or 49/50, if they decide to finish early. This may be somewhat confusing, and there's arguments for and against it... but changing it would require a pretty massive overhaul (well, not really, but doing it correctly would).

Any suggestions on how to make the numbers more meaningful?"

Given the choice, I'd prefer you folks work on the important stuff that needs attention first. Once there, you can always do the .1, .2, .3, .4
dance to tweak things.

Sincerely,
Ready for Version 3
