Distribution of 2.10

Do you folks of Ravennuke appreciate if I made a Bittorent file of 2.10 and start seeding it to release some stress considering your bandwith?

It can save you a lot of traffic if only a bittorent link is published.
Or is that no issue?

It's only to help, I can also imagine that you want the control yourselves over the download.

I believe Raven is restricting downloads to this site only so that he can more easily monitor the popularity of the finished product (the same as the previous version). There is also some proprietry code included with RN that you may not be permitted to redistribute such as the installer/upgrader scripts but if I am incorrect, I'm sure Raven will clarify.

I have read the REDISTRIBUTION file in the 2.10 package.

This is clear about the redistribution of the package.

I think asking shows a proper respect for the creators wishes. It is really up to Raven if he wants to track through BitTorrent or not. (I don't see why not)
