Description
Description
Developing a simple and reproducible distribution of Github releases for images as torrents with checksums. See #1487 as an example.
Requirements
- Checksums must be generated.
- Torrents must only distribute the actual github releases as they become available (and nothing else).
- We already have access to a https://linuxtracker.org account.
- We should track newly added torrents via Matrix RSS bot, or on the forum.
Help Needed
Anyone willing is welcome to help setup a simple and trustworthy system for automatically distributing images to a torrent tracker such as https://linuxtracker.org/ by responding here with script and other technical details.

Research direction
Review issue #1487 and the GitHub releases page first to understand the existing distribution example and the release artifacts involved. A complete solution should generate checksums, publish only newly available GitHub releases as torrents through a tracker such as linuxtracker.org, and provide Matrix RSS or forum tracking.
