Many people are seeding the FSUK torrent from their home machines and
remote VMs, myself included - I've uploaded about 4Gb already.

To be honest, brutally honest, for the next 11 months or so, I have enough bandwith to mirror every talk, and providing they don't get slashdotted (which would probably actually be a good thing!) http downloads (and soon https) will not be a problem.

However, having said that, any mirrors would be welcome, and I appreciate fluffles mirror which to some extent has shared the traffic: http://www.pl0rt.org/fsuk/video.html Anyone else who has some spare bandwidth as the month nears its end might also consider being a http mirror, though bittorrent seeding if you have a VM and not shared hosting like me, might or might not be more useful

I think that recording, editing and distributing, via free software, the talks given at our group may well be a way to help people outside the normal zone of regulars, understand appreciate free software and interesting speakers.
