Thanks! OK, let's see if my laptop has enough disk space left ;)
could you post an 'ls -l' too, so we have an idea of the file sizes?

Transmission.app on OSX says "Downloading from 1 or 1 peers" now (for
a few of them), and "from 0 of 0 peers" for others. Perhaps you have
some limits/queue in place?

Now this is where my grip on the protocol is weak --- I'm behind NAT
currently, and I forget how this works - can other peers find my
machine via your public seeder?

I'll try this on an ubuntu box too. Would be nice if someone could
join with a single simple script...

cheers,

Dan
