Re: call for mirrors

The time has come for us to distribute the bandwidth load. Hopefully,
everyone will take note of this, and help if possible. I'm sure you all
realize that we are a successful distribution, which uses a notable amount
of bandwidth. GNU-Darwin mirrors will also help as well as SourceForge
mirrors.

I don't use GNU-Darwin, and Darwin is distributed by solely by Apple. As far
as I know they do not use Sourceforge at all. Is this correct?

But what does this tell us? Darwin uses an open source license - and, sorry to say this, Darwin proper is not useful for a non-developer because there are no applications you can play with. GNU Darwin, on the other hand, makes it very easy to configure the distribution and offers quite a bit of software.


There might be some GNU Darwin lists out there full of people who'd love to
help. It looks like there's a couple of lists mentioned on:

http://gnu-darwin.sourceforge.net/

You might be able to drum up more support there.


why not here? It's all Darwin in the end ...

Nick
