[arch-projects] [archweb] [RFC] download.html: Provide a magnet link
Some people prefer these over torrent files, as they're easier to pass than the torrent files themselves. On updates, this only needs the new info hash.
The tracker bits are optional, but ensure that the torrent client gets peers more quickly to receive the actual torrent file. --- templates/public/download.html | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)

We should use {{version}} in here too, right? Instead of the hardcoded "2012.10.06" string. Otherwise looks good.

Yes, I saw that too late, when I wasn't at the computer anymore.
This string is not really important: Without it, the torrent client will not know the filename directly after importing the magnet, but only after retrieving the actual .torrent file from the cloud - of course, it would be better if the string was correct.
