TDE Devs,
I hesitate to send this to a do-ocracy when I don't have the time
to do it myself but I think this warrants a ping.
I rate myself as a software engineer with an excellent track record
in (proprietary) database managers, AI, and systems software. I've
designed software, lead software teams, and picked up other's failing
projects and literally worked and slept in my office to ship on time.
But I would never have thought that what Tim did was possible. The
solo fork and improvement of TDE was a massive undertaking in which
Tim succeeded brilliantly. Whether or not Tim ever touches TDE again
I have an enormous respect for his courage, talent, and achievement.
But now others have taken up the mantle.
The original TDE infrastructure has been broken in various ways
for a long time. The stable mirrors have been unable to update
for eight months. The trinitydesktop.org domain expires in March
and there is no guarantee that the original TDE infrastucture will
continue to stumble along even that long.
TDE 14.0.7 is currently in PSB. Waiting for 14.0.8 might be too
late. I would like to see TDE 14.0.7, either when it goes stable
or soon thereafter, on community-managed infrastructure.

due to unsatisfied /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
for package trinity-tdelibs-14.0.6-1.mga7.x86_64
host big41
Where is this ca-bundle.crt file supposed to come from?

With the main git repo often down I decided to try to clone the mirror
instead.
I used:
GIT_ASKPASS=echo git clone --recursive \
https://anonymous@mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde
However while it identifies all the submodules from the mirror it tries
to fetch the submodules from the main repo and fails (see below).
Can anyone tell me the correct magic incantation?
Thanks,
--Mike

#1 The List of LiveCDs located at https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/LiveCDs are mostly outdated, meaning that they don't contain the latest version of TDE, although the page states "Unless otherwise marked, all of them contain the most recent version of Trinity". If LiveCDs are always gonna be late behind then the previous statement should be removed.
#2 Whose working on Ubuntu Releases and Ubuntu Nightly? I'm pretty sure they are not official Ubuntu flavors so they must be community driven, and why are they so late behind with R14.04 version?
