I'll consider it.  The CA system is so fundamentally broken that I'm
unwilling to use it without, at least, an external pinning system.  That
assumes that the CA isn't already compromised and delivering compromised
certs.  If they'd like to sign my cert, it'd be easier to swallow.  I'll
look into the details when I have some spare time.

In the mean time, you can get the torrent from the "latest" link or
download the entire archive manually:

Big hat tip to Bjarni for sponsoring the hosting.
