Some are less important in code comments, but majority of them are in user-facing places. I manually approved 60%+ of the changes and didn't see any that were an incorrect suggestion, at worst it was potentially uncessesary, like a code comment having cant instead of can't.

UDR utilizes rsync as the transport mechanism, but sends the data over the UDT protocol. UDR is not written or managed by UCSC. It is an open source tool created by the <a href='http://www.labcomputing.org/' title=''>Laboratory for Advanced Computing</a> at the University of Chicago. It has been tested under Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OSX, but may work under other UNIX variants. The source code can be obtained through <a href='https://github.com/LabAdvComp/UDR' title=''>GitHub</a>.
