Guys,
I have downloaded every beta version of open suse via bit torrent and I have found that my downloads from bit torrent are far slower than from ftp.gwdg.de so I end up downloading them from there because none of the mirrors have been updated. I have served out over 6gb from my home connection. I would prefer to simply have one iso to download and then install the packages on demand or to setup a Yast installation source and grab the latest updates from there. This would hopefully reduce the load on the servers because users would only be downloading updates / deltas to there currently installed rpms.
