All this is done. You can download the torrent files via the download
page:
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/

either click "Torrent" of each file or, if You want to seed all files,
click "Info" at the same place which shows all relevant info for the
file including hashes to check integrity. Also shown in the browsers
address line is the path of the file in the distribution file system.

So the question is *how* to get the files for seeding rather than *if*
so.

My question was about the preferred way of syncing to get the recent
files - the one without bad impact for the statistics.
