I would use the newsgroups strategy but I signed up at http://astinews.de/xtest when Zephyroth first released 10.5.2 and I can't find the email nor do I remember my username ext. Any ideas when the torrent will be up?

there's one on the bay right now, but only one seed. just wait a while for more to pop up.

People are currently seeding on the torrents right now. However, I don't know why you are considering the NewsGroup methods. Visit mac.kbot.de where I posted a How-to guide for your exact purpose. Pretty straightforward. =)

the asti trial account is limited to an certain ammount of traffic (and time?).
so you might not be able to use the old account anyway.
creating a new one requires a different email, i think.

Creating a new account requires a different email and most importantly, a different IP (Internet Protocol) address. Astinews gives you a free 5-day trial. It is never limited to a certain amount of traffic and time according to my study. Astinews is only useful for UseNET / NewsGroup downloads.

seeding @ 1.8Mb/s but with low id :)

good to hear, you're the one who created the torrent in the first place right? I was having skepticism in the beginning about that torrent file, but all seems credible. :)

whats the name of the torrent?

here is a name:
Leopard 10.5.2 AMD EFI Rev.2

this name is also in another thread on the forums. =)
