? software.o.o was the last time quite stable and reachable iirc. The plan is 
again to have a window of approx. 30h where we don't redirect the requests to 
the mirrors, instead you can download the iso's from akamai, with full speed.

Use software.o.o, don't use torrent or mirrors. Let's try to break the 200TB 
mark this time :-)
