[Coco] sourceforge insurance

[Bill Pierce]

Richard, couldn't tell ya... I've fought so many battles LMAO
But I agree. The backups should not be "readily" available as just downloads and one "main" server be specified. I also agree with Tormod, until something actually does happen with SF, it should stay where it is. I'm pretty sure there's plenty of "backups" if one would just ask. I personally have a current backup that gets refreshed at least once a month unless there's a lot of activity in which I may backup once a week. Only the default branch is changed or edited, so once you've cloned the site, an "hg pull -u " will keep it current.

 OK, My two cents...If theconsensus is to have backup locations, a decision and agreementHAS to be madewhere the true as in MAIN file server is. If that doesn'thappen, folks will bedown loading obsolete releases as has happened inthe past. I think Bill Pericefought that battle. If it thats the wrongBill I apologize.-- Coco mailinglistCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
