When i want to download the Mozilla 1.8a1 release through BT, i get "BT CORE:
tracker: "http://bittorrent.mozilla.org:6969/announce" Requested download is not
authorized for use with this tracker."
Maybe this should be fixed (also Mozilla 1.8a1 is a bit older and might not be
distributed very well in the BT network).

Where exactly did you get a torrent file that pointed at it?  I didn't recall
anyone ever setting up a torrent for that release.

See the URL :), it's on the ftp server.
I never created a torrent for it or set the tracker up to handle it.  Don't know
how it got there.
looks like leaf created the torrents.  they should probably just be removed from
the ftp site and the links from the webpages linking to them
Justin is now the QA for this component.

looks like this needs files removed from the ftp server if it's still there...

Per an email discussion between me, preed, and Justin, changing the default QA Contact for the 18 open FTP:Staging bugs to preed.

Unusual string to help you filter bugmail for this change: craptastic!

We don't support providing torrents any more, especially for ancient releases.
