I'll try to fix it. If your connection is that slow though, I don't see 
how bittorrent would help you either, you still only have a week (minus a 
day or two in the bittorrent case for the seeder to grab the iso and start 
seeding) before it is obsoleted by a new image.

For those interested: The problem is that the tracker is running on a 
temporary host until we get ipv6 on a different network segment. So it is 
missing a few cron jobs etc. And as all "quick temporary" setups, it has 
lasted for much longer than I initially thought it would...
