Was there a 6.10 release of Edubuntu

When I started saving the checksums for all of the Ubuntu releases I
had no idea how difficult (or at least time consuming) it was going to
be.  I have been getting most of my information from the
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ website.  I think I have gotten all of the
Ubuntu releases up through 6.06.2
(http://www.worldwide-database.org/cgi-bin/list_files.cgi?md5), so I
was just starting on 6.10 and I looked at
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/releases/ and it doesn't list an
Edubuntu 6.10 release:

Index of /edubuntu/releases

    * Parent Directory
    * 6.06.1/
    * 6.06/
    * 7.04/
    * 7.10/
    * 8.04/
    * dapper/
    * edgy/
    * feisty/
    * gutsy/
    * hardy/

However, just to be thorough I googled for edubuntu-6.10-i386.iso and
it found one web page
http://www.yinfor.com/freethinking/archives/2006/10/ubuntu610.html (a
blog) that listed it.  I can't really read this page, but it has a
link to a torrent file for it.  I am not sure what to make of this at
all.  I find it hard to believe that if it actually existed that there
is only one web page on the entire Internet that still has a reference
to it?!?  So can anyone confirm that there was actually an Edubuntu
6.10 release or if it was really skipped?

Thanks for any information
  -Scott
