Why all this secrecy. You whould swear this was some kind of corprate
release. I thought that this was to preserve bandwidth for ftp mirrors
and get them ready for the heavy load. Why whouldn't you release the
bittorrent files first, (building a network among folks on the list)
that way when 3pm Monday does come there are many seeders who can
help, and it would extremely relieve the ftp sites.
