Hisham / anyone relevant,

I'm using a luarcoks config file, so I can also point to Leafo's
rocks.moonscript.org. I noticed, today, that if any lookup times out on his
server, it does not go on to try the next available server. My config is
thus:

rocks_servers = {
  "http://rocks.moonscript.org/";,
  "http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/";,
}


And I get this:

luarocks install ev
Warning: Failed searching manifest: Failed loading manifest: Failed
fetching manifest for http://rocks.moonscript.org/ - Error fetching file:
Failed downloading http://rocks.moonscript.org/manifest - HTTP/1.1 503
Service Unavailable

It would be awesome if, in the event of a server error, it went to the next
server. This would allow backup servers - so if the main rocks repo went
down, one could seamlessly switch to the backup. Are there any
considerations I'm missing?

Thanks!

Jack
