Are you asking or offering?

Jigdo is to build the image, not pulling it; it'll only pull the
packages.
I was thinking about making the bd isos avaliable on
ftp.br.debian.org/debian-cd. If there's somebody interested I might do
it earlier. Download would have to be via rsync or a http client that
not only can resume interrupted transfers but also check that the
content is correct, because for a transfer of this size the
probability of errors is significant. No torrents though.
If I do it the bd images will only be available via another rsync
module, to not through a big disk increase of unofficial content on
downstream mirrors without previous notice.
