Ask Soylent: Good Torrents to Keep Seeding?

I have a pretty solid connection that has been sitting unused most of the time I'm not home. So I started thinking it would be a good deed to keep seeding torrent files of interesting projects. I already have a Raspberry Pi that's always on (since its my local DNS/DHCP server) so it was just a matter of installing a torrent daemon with a web interface.

My question is, what torrents would the SN community advise me to seed? Of course, I'm talking about content which does not infringe copyright terms. So far I am seeding ISO images for Linux Mint (Cinnamon and Mate), Xubuntu 14.04 and NOOBs (for the RaspberryPi) but I'm thinking there is a lot of other cool stuff that deserves more seeding. Do you know any?

    I never seed music or movies. I have a static IP and my reverse is set by my upstream so anyone with time to make trouble would have no problem finding me.

    A fair number of movies and an absolutely huge mass of music is not all rights reserved so you can perfectly legally share it, be it via torrents or otherwise. Some of it is of pretty nice quality as well.
