Thanks, Mike. It was
http://mirror.ntmm.org/trinity/
which I had been using and which suddenly became unreliable.
I have no way, that I know of, of knowing which is nearest to me.
I'll just have to try them all until one is OK for a bit.
Is anyone happy with his/her mirror? If so,
please what is it?
The existing mirrors are good with just occasional brief
outages for things like security updates. I would suggest
using the mirror nearest you.
https://trinitydesktop.org/mirrorstatus.php If anyone wants to add a full mirror you'll need
165GB right
now without nightlies and normally at least 200GB. I operate
one of the mirrors with 250GB. Expect 1-2TB per month of
downloads and maybe 10% of that for uploads.
The problem is the bandwidth between Tim's build farm and
the primary mirror. Increasing the bandwidth would be a
significant ongoing expense. Moving the build farm to the
"cloud" would be a significant ongoing expense.
We need a millionaire, as I said!! Or a good fund raiser and some crowd
funding.
When time permits Tim might want to move the web site
to
a small reliable VPS and perhaps add a DNS redirector to
distribute load between the available mirrors.
This is where we need to focus. Webhosts will sometimes host such projects
for free. We have a local one which hosts several FLOSS and Linux projects,
but the owner doesn't like me so is probably not likely to host TDE for free.
But I'll try to get some feelers out.
The reliable bit is crucial. We might even get the chap I mentioned back!
