Well, it's thursday afternoon for me. I only work on the mirror workdays 
(well, I don't, anymore, but that's not really the point :). There is no 
time at all to go after BitTorrent, learn how to install and use it, 
configure it, and get ready for the mirroring before I leave for the 
weekend.

Meaning it's not really viable for this release.

These days the necessities of life cost you about three times what
they used to, and half the time they aren't even fit to drink.
