Downloading problems[edit]

Is the download still availiable? the preceding unsigned comment is by Vayaka (talk • contribs)

It appears that the tracker is down. Is there any reasons for this? Harryboyles 13:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I looking after it. Will post back here when I have more information. -- Bryan (talk to me) 18:12, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's up again, but it might seed a little slow... -- Bryan (talk to me) 18:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the tracker you're using is taking 100% CPU to track a single torrent with 1 downloader. if torrents are going to be a normal way to distribute large files like this, it's probably worth finding a more efficient one. Kate

There now is a more efficient one. w:XBTT. -- Bryan (talk to me) 19:23, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Checking back after a week, the torrent is still unavailable. ~~helix84 23:31, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Toolserver got restarted two days ago; forgot to restart the tracker. -- Bryan (talk to me) 09:37, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems the tracker is down again. I can't download the .torrent file --Franz T. Speeling 04:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My fault, I deleted something I should not have done. It's back again. -- Bryan (talk to me) 08:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wonderful! Thanks :) Some high quality stuff in here --Franz T. Speeling 09:21, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

if no-one seeds it, what's the point in having a torrent? seed it man! and, if no-one will seed, can't we just download it from a wikimedia server? there are like a zillion of them, just use a spare one (old, slow whatever for these purposes). peace.
