Which seems to me to be less (or about the same time) as would take to update the original distribution using yum. So it does not look worthwhile to download the FC6 respin.
If you take a close look at "real time" stats posted on Fedora Unity's site it is easy to see that usage of bittorrent makes no sense. Beyond the initial availability announcement period there are not enough seeders or peers to make downloading a short lived release worthwhile. What these folks need to do is convince Fedora Core or other sites to host their respin. =======================================================================
