Perhaps you should wait a day or so until all mirrors are fully up to date
and the ppl who are in a hurry to get the source have got it..
Alternatively you US boys could get out of bed early and download it before
50% of the USA starts to download. I have got it about 12 hours ago from a
German mirror at a normal speed.
