Here is a link to a torrent for version 3.30 of the Shonky maps:
http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3696106

Anyone who has this file please feel free to help me seed as we have a pretty slow ADSL connection here. On the plus side, we have no data limits and the computer is always on so no worries about losing a connection (unless the power goes off that is :P )

Any probs with the torrent please let me know as I set it up in a bit of a hurry as have to be up early tomorrow to pick my parents up from the airport :lol:

Thanks for the update :D

There's 5 of us stuck on 52% with no seeds but I think it's connecting in dribs and drabs, was 49.5% an hour ago, so it'll get there eventually! :D

The new version maps are not much good to me if the changes are mainly in Tassie, but I will download them tonight (or start) then I can seed all weekend if this helps.

Aloysius - did you work out why the downloads jumped up so suddenly? What were the referring urls?
I put the url on T4A mailing list...those guys are a touch more popular than i thought ;)

A question for the torrent experts: I have a copy of this file and I'm quite happy to seed 24/7 at high speed, but how do I tell uTorrent to do this?

Note sure how you do it with an existing file, but from the client you can download the "Torrent file" posted above and that should launch your utorrent client which should seed it once its downloaded.
not sure how to "pre-seed"

I can tell you how to do it with Azureus, should be fairly similar with utorrent I would imagine.

The easiest way is to download the torrent and then copy the completed file into the directory where it would be downloaded to (if you didn't already have it). Then right click on the torrent in your download list and click recheck file. Then once the file has been discovered to be 100%, it is automatically moved to the seeding category instead of download. Hope this helps you get it up and running :)
