Thanks Matt, but bit torrent stalled and I've never had good luck
downloading anything through bit torrent. The one time I used it it took one
day to download. I like the idea of it but it doesn't work well most of the
time.

Thanks for posting this Matt,
My guess is that the Linux Format people are shrewd.
The Torrents may only be available for 24 hour, but
they can persist on the net as long as people have the .torrent and
there are people that are sharing it back.
Seems a very savvy use of corporate bandwidth.

Okay it did not puke this time, successful download, have the zip file
with same content.

It shows on the download window as a *.torrent file that is 10K on disk.
How does one get the actual .pdf from this?

Hi Tim - I'm guessing by "telesync" you mean "record the audio of the
VOIP conference"?
It would require someone to volunteer to do that. Feel free to
volunteer! :)
Or, just try joining in the VOIP conference, & learning what it's all
about. :)

LinuxFormat is releasing the current news-stand version of their magazine as
a *free* PDF download.
Not some weird proprietary format, no DRM, no strings. Just as a thank you
to their community, and also to try to encourage more readers to go digital.
The only catch, is it is available for 24 hour
If people from all over cannot simultaneously meet, what about starting
to telesync the meetings for future distribution?
