One thing to note (it was mentioned in passing by Carlo earlier in the thread) is that, in spite of the subject, the file to look for is vrml-1.0.14.tar.gz . Propagation to the mirrors isn't _that_ slow. I've typically been able to upload files and have them available for download in a few minutes. The non-appearance of the tarball on the files webpage seems to be unconnected. Using "http://downloads.sourceforge.net/octave/vrml-1.0.14.tar.gz"; as the download URL should automatically redirect to a mirror that contains the file: that's what I used on a recent download of that particular tarball. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
