404 Not found for both the RSS and the Atom.

Btw, if you want people to do something (keep seeds running), perhaps
make it less work for them. I.e. push principle instead of pull
principle (having to actively "poll" a feed on and off, no, I'm not one
of the RSS/... junkies anyway).

One also has to follow quite many links from the start page (or the
download page) to finally actually *get* to the torrents. Perhaps
optimize the link depth?

wget also complains about a certificate mismatch

$ wget

So that was my part of the work when I tried to seed things for no
personal use.

Kind regards,
