Great to see 7.0RC2 out!

Rather than maintaining http mirrors for a large download, why not set up a torrent as well to allow for quicker downloads and a broader distribution of the bandwidth?

I've been trying all day to download RC2 from Ibiblio and it is painfully slow, even on a 6 meg DSL. My first attempt ended up timing out after an hour.

If the ISO was seeded as a torrent, it would be much more effective.
