The mirror is taking forever to sync up this time around. Probably because the transfer so far is > 6GB over my 0.5MB/s uplink.
Looks like the link is working. I realize this is a test point but some thoughts:
What is the monolithic tarball?
Perhaps file sizes should accompany each link to help people gauge download times?
Could there be a single download link for the traditional core kde packages?:
tqtinterface arts kdeaccessibility: kdeaddons kdeadmin kdeartwork kdebase kdebindings kdeedu kdegames kdegraphics kdelibs kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdepim kdesdk kdetoys kdeutils kdevelop kdewebdev
Good suggestions! This is why the test tarballs (which I can now say for certain are NOT final) were published early, to get feedback from distribution packagers. ;-)
The monolithic tarball is the entire source tree provided in the original SVN archive structure. The complete tarball is a collection of all the smaller module tarballs in one file for easy downloading.
I suppose the traditional packages mentioned above could be provided in one more tarball. Of course, that means that everything else should go in another tarball, which brings up the question of whether or not the "complete" file should be retained as-is or split into two separate files, "core" and "extra".
Thoughts?
