+Investigating it, I see that all three Alpha2 torrents @ linuxtracker include 
+the .idx, .md5, and .sha1 files.
+
+That is very nice, and i used to do so earlier, but as the dual @ thepiratebay 
+was the single .iso I also put up the DVD isos with only .iso files.
+
+Pity we now have two versions and split swarm.
+
+I will withdraw the iso-only torrents from thepiratebay (but keep seeding)
+and upload torrents with same full file content and hash as theese to populate 
+same swarms, but i aslo include multi tracker info.

+OK, nice.
+I did not know about them @ linuxtracker as all i have got last days when i 
+try to browse there is "Fatal error: Call to a member function set() on a 
+non-object in /home/mangeli/linuxtracker.org/include/functions.php on line 
+844"
+...re-checking now i realise this only happens using Opera, my primary 
+browser, but not Firefox, so I will tell linuxtracker it broke.
