No you can not, but the tracker isn't very resource intesive from my past experience. I can host it if needed.

It wasn't that that I was thinking of ... just wondering if there was some way of having it redundant, instead of centralized ... nice thing about ftp mirrors, we have about 60 of them, so if one goes down, it doesn't really affect anything ... from what everyone is saying, if the tracker goes down, it affects everything ... seems odd to have "new technology" still having single points of failure :(

I don't think this is correct. You need a tracker for downloaders to be able to find each other but no client is more important than the others.


can there be multiple trackers? for instance, if we ran bt.postgresql.org on two different servers, could they both run trackers at the same time?
