Package: debian-cd
Severity: wishlist

Inspired by [1] I went to check if Debian's torrent files have web seeds
in them but it doesn't look like they do. I'm guessing that debian-cd
uses the bittorrent package to create .torrent files, unfortunately this
does not seem to support web seeds. There is, however, a fork of
bittorrent called bittornado that supports web seeds. My naive untested
patch to add support for this to debian-cd is below. Thoughts?

Thanks for the patch. I've extended it slightly to add support for 2
different locations for the seeds, and committed it now so pettersson
builds will use the new code.
