It's not a bad idea to have teams host the manual the first week but if you do, please commit to removing it after the first update.
Whether or not anyone but FIRST legally can distribute it without their permission is up for debate, I fail to see how sharing it through torrents is any different than hosting it on a server for direct download.

If you have Acrobat, it takes about 2 clicks to remove the security.
