Explain to me.. in very small words... from a mirror admin
perspective... why exactly they should choose to stagger their
release.. instead of just going rogue, grabbing a torrent and
producing a mirror from that and forsaking 'official' status?
You better make damn sure the official mirror admins are interested in
staggering, before you suggest it as a policy. Because if there is one
very good way of causing a worse mirroring bottleneck it is to have
mirrors choose to drop out of the official list.

Hey hold on here guys, I was _only_ suggesting that the .torrents be
made available in what seems to be a more convenient location. Like
putting the low fat baked potato chips on the shelf next to the regular
chips, not back in the health food section. For whatever reason many
will still grab the regular chips, but a few might grab the low fat version;
