When there's an official announcement and a torrent link shows up on the
centos website then I'll add my machine to the feed (it's a v-colo machine
at an ISP; I have 100Gb/month xfer so I should be able to help out a bit),
but I don't want to waste my bandwidth on unannounced potentially broken
unfinalised images.  Mostly likely what you are downloading now is the final
version, but since it hasn't been announced there _could_ be a last minute
change.

I strongly suggest people wait for an official announcement and then use
that torrent.  That's what I'm gonna do!
