I started my computing career with OS/2 . I am downloading the full archive now and I hope to make it available on Mega by the end of the week.
I'll try to set up a torrent seed while I am at it too.
EDIT: Here is the Mega link.

Realistically, could I help seed it from my phone?
I've not used torrent since playing with it a bit a couple of decades ago, so I've no idea where to start. But if it's practical and works well the concept is very appealing.
I have a no log VPN and I'm running Firefox with ublock origin and privacy Badger. I'm also thinking of running Mullvad DNS on my router but currently use Open DNS.
I would do this from home where I have fttp, not asynchronous but it's about 70 up. That could change though.
I do have a laptop but I try not to use Windows, Android is much better for me. Having my phone start torrent activity when I get home would be a fantastic resource for me while also giving back via seeding.
Any links or advice you can give would be very kind of you, and I'd like to repost if there's better places for this kind of enquiry.
This is fantastic, thank you so much!
I guess for iOS, you have to sideload, bit there is a transmission app. You can sideload using altStore, jailbreak (I think there is a .deb, else you have to use a IPA installer) or using a service that has enterprise certificate in order to sign and install apps.
The mega link is up.
