Just went to download 8.04.4 and to use the torrent. Guess what, the links on the page point to 8.04.3 torrent download which gets you a 404 error.

To get by this, go into the address window of your browser and change each 8.04.3 to 8.04.4 and you will get the torrent.

Just thought I would pass this on if anyone was trying to get it via the torrent. If anyone is watching, maybe the links should be updated on the download pages.

If you already have any version of 8.04 you can zsync to update it. It cuts the overall download by about 50%.

Thanks, bpalone, I have filed a request on Launchpad to get the page updated. See bug 540023. There is a similar report in bug 528202 but it's not quite the same, so I opened a new one.

I checked earlier today and it is still the same. That is if my cache wasn't cleared since the last time. Just thought I would bump this for that reason.
