Hi,
Is there a reason why code.dlang.org is offline?
Thanks,

It's an ongoing process to make the registry more reliable.
However, since a couple of months we run multiple mirrors.
At the moment there is:
https://code-mirror.dlang.io (EU)
https://code-mirror2.dlang.io (US)
http://code-mirror3.dlang.io (Heroku, US)
- You can run one yourself with --mirror
- The next DUB release will contain default fallbacks to these
mirrors
Awesome!
This week I could not connect to code.dlang.org on Wednesday
and Friday, I think... usually it was in the morning around
10-11 AM GMT... But it happened to have some failing builds on
travis too, for the same reason.
FYI the progress so far has been:
https://github.com/dlang/dub/pull/1190
https://github.com/dlang/dub/pull/1198
There's still another one in the queue:
https://github.com/dlang/dub/pull/1246
And since dub is shipped by DMD and LDC nowadays, we can skip the
download from code.dlang.org entirely on Travis and avoid another
point of failure:
https://github.com/dlang/installer/pull/218
It would be awesome if there would be a configuration that
allows you to select the default mirror.
You can already set multiple registries today with --registry
(can be specified multiple times).
The mirroring is a separate feature, but there has been a short
discussion about a potential syntax already:
https://github.com/dlang/dub/pull/1190#issuecomment-320616565
Anyhow the idea is that with the next release of DUB (2017-11-01
with 2.077) sensible default mirrors will be the default
built-ins and especially the annoying Travis errors should
disappear.
