 Research pros and cons of moving our website distribution to a peer to
 peer model, so one can mirror our entire website (all static html and
 binaries) via bittorrent.  Current methods are https scraping or rsync.

 Further, do we push out updates and point www.torproject.org to a list of
 bt peers so anyone can serve up the website?
