I’d like to set up a torrent tracker. How?

I want to set up a bittorrent tracker. I will seed legal content, don’t worry about this.

Even though bittorrent is such a wonderful and widespread technology, I found little information on how to set up my own tracker. It looks like the entertainment industry propaganda is driving away people from sharing their knowledge on how to setup and maintain a torrent tracker. I also couldn’t find good tools, like web front-ends or tools to analyze and visualize tracker traffic and stats.

So, please, if you know about these things, write some decent howtos, and share the knowledge with the rest of the world…
