A downloads is the number of how many times the torrent has been downloaded according to its tracker record
A seeder is a peer that has a complete copy of the torrent and still offers it for upload. The more seeders there are, the better the chances are for completion of the file
A leech is usually a peer who has a negative effect on the swarm by having a very poor share ratio - in other words, downloading much more than they upload. Most leeches are users on asymmetric internet connections who do not leave their BitTorrent client open to seed the file after their download has completed. However, some leeches intentionally avoid uploading by using modified clients or excessively limiting their upload speed. The term leech, however, can be used simply to describe a peer - or any client that does not have 100% of the data
A peer is one instance of a BitTorrent client running on a computer on the Internet that other clients connect to and transfer data. Usually a peer does not have the complete file, but only parts of it, however, peer can be used to refer to any participant in the swarm (in this case, also known as a client). Note that the colloquial definition of peer is anybody, leech or seed, involved in a torrent
A health (or avaiability) the number of full copies of the file available to the client. Each seeder adds 1.0 to this number, as they have one complete copy of the file. A connected peer with a fraction of the file available adds that fraction to the availability, if no other peer has this part of the file. (ie. a peer with 65.3% of the file downloaded increases the availability by 0.653, when two peers who both have the same 50% of the file downloaded and there is one seeder the availability is 1.5)

I'm intending to upload the whole of Doctor Who on DVD, in order.
Where available these will be the official BBC DVD's. Where there isn't a DVD it'll be my own, mostly from a BBC VHS release. Where there are episodes or stories missing they'll be reconstructions (usually Loose Cannon), encoded onto DVD.
As soon as someone else is seeding I'll do the next one. If no one seeds them they'll die 'cos I haven't got the bandwidth to seed more than one at a time. At roughly one a week this is going to take a couple of years!
There are a few Dr Who DVD's on the torrent sites that have menus which recreate the BBC's. Mine don't, mainly because life's too short to spend doing this, and I think the content is more important. In fact some of the early Who discs have a lot of flaws in them because I hadn't figured out how to use the software yet!
Thanks for all the work you have done in uploading these classics.
On the VHS release there was a 3 minute linking sequence for the missing episodes. Do you have this?
