There could be, the trick is that as soon as a a file is added to the collection it's either missing from the master torrent, or if I regenerate the big torrent then it fragments the seeding base. Perhaps if I schedule it to regenerate the torrent once a month those who wish to help mirror can update their torrent to the latest version, the vast majority of the contents would be unchanged from one month to the next. The other problem is that while each individual file is available over HTTP, I'm not sure if it's possible to have a webseed for all the files. I've read conflicting opinions, but haven't been able to get it to work in my testing.

Nevertheless, we can give it a go. There's now a link in the top-right of the home page, and it should auto-update just after midnight on the first of every month.

Thanks, I have put it on my always-seeding machine. Let's see whether it works!

I'm working on generating a wget file list that you could use to grab the collection from my server first, before making my home machine upload 10GB to you.

Oh, okay, then I will stop until then.

There's now a .txt file linked in the same place with a few thousand curl lines that you should be able to run as a batch to re-create the mirror structure locally, grabbing via HTTP from my server. Then you can fire up the torrent and recheck and should have all the files where they should be.
