Torrent?

Jan 17, 2006 tau link
I know this has been asked before, but how about a torrent for the download? My download of the "old" client took two hours, and now it seems the test client is going to take nearly as long.

Hell, I'll host the tracker myself, if I get an official "ok, please do" from someone who can tell me I'm not going to be sued for piracy. :)

good Idea tau. Someone should put this together as a torrent for the members. I am seeing the download from the VO site is slow as in 25KB/sec.
It would also save VO some bandwidth.

Well, I'm ready to post a link to a tracker and seed the file for a day or two at least pretty much the minute I see an official ok for that.

I guess I could but I still need to download the file myself...and by that time I'm guessing a great deal of people will already have it. Could put it on another HTTP server. Yea...I'll do that.

Same here. Just give us a sign, divnie or mundane, and I will seed away.

If it weren't invite only, it could be put on tracker.torrentskickass.com

A torrent is ready to be uploaded as soon as there is some kind of reply...

I've been thinking John would see this and reply. I can't see any reason why it wouldn't be ok, but I hesitate to officially sanction it as it's a business decision.

If for some crazy reason it goes slow, plz say so (unless your on dialup) so I can complain to the net admins. :)

Yes, it's ok to post a torrent. Only for the test client, but yes.

Alright then. Here's one, I hope others who volunteered will seed, too: http://www.fishpool.org/torrents/btdownload.php?type=torrent&file=vo3.zip.torrent

*edit* nvm :)

Well, I would be seeding except nobody appears to be downloading... Either that, or my firewall is b0rked again...

Seems like the tracker borked somehow, sorry about that. I reset it, maybe things work better now. I'm going to be traveling for a week starting this Friday, so I hope it'll work for now..
