[Coco] maltedmedia ftp request

Thu Jun 21 20:40:39 EDT 2012

Hi,

We need starting Time / Date for Torrents.
Perhaps a week or more in advance. The more people wanting the better, they 
both download and upload at the same time.

I have Rainbow torrent from Aaron burned already on DVD.
He did a lot of work to make them small, perhaps delay Rainbow or resend his 
would be a better plan. (I cannot seed, DSL upload is way too slow.)
