Hey guys,
We might be a couple people interested in this pack (I do as pack performance is one of my main interest in git). Linus is interested, and I'd guess Junio too, maybe a few others.
Chris: why don't you just set up a Bittorrent feed for it? When we'll all start fetching it then the bandwidth will increasingly be shared amongst all interested people.
