Hello. Sorry about cross-posting, but I thought this might be of interest and benefit for all and I had no desire to repeat myself.

Done for edonkey:

(each URL should be a single line, i.e. 5 lines all together)
I verified the md5sums to be sure my download was correct. Note that
the md5sums file above is somewhat redundant, because edonkey has its
own checksum mechanism. And if you want to test if the files are
authentic, you will have to use the md5sums from the Mandrake site
anyhow (if you do not trust my files, well, you do not trust my md5sum
file either). Anyhow, I added it just for completeness.
Mind, that I have a ADSL line with 128KBit upload, this means only
about 10KB in average. That is about 3 days for the 3 ISOs. But at
least you now have the exact files to look for and I hope that this
will encourage others do the same and publish their downloads.
Since it is the first time that I try to publish files (other than
simply putting them in my shared folders), I am not sure that I did
not miss anything. Let me know, if it works - or not.
Bye,
Benjamin.
