Hi Janina, I didn't take it that way. I would think there would be tremodous value to the community in anyone using bittorrent to pull the "official" dist and then rsync'ing to Bill's moded dist. I for one certainly appreciate his ongoing committment and effort!! He certainly helped me a lot to get started back in the RH 7.x days! It must be noted that I cannot speak to A. S.'s intent, only that I didn't percieve it the way you did. I considered replying with the bittorrent/rsync combo but I didn't know if he has broadband where that would be most usefull to him as a user. On the other hand, getting "official" iso's and then rsync'ing has the most benefit to the community as a whole since it frees up resources specific to the community. Regards, Cecil
