we've added a few more centos.org machines into the torrent pool to feed
the binDVD's out ( thanks hughesjr !! )
I've also added another 1024KiB/sec upload capacity to the torrent
externally ( hosted out of the US ), and we have 220+ Seeders. Set the
refresh rate ( --rerequest_interval ) to something low - like maybe 20
min ( the default is 300 minutes ) , and retry the torrent, you _should_
see a much faster download rate now.
Also a big thanks to everyone who is helping seed...
