Hello, The download page now contains the links.
I was able to download the binary. The Source downloads did not work. HTTP link responds with NOT FOUND - url mirror/..... not found on server FTP link responds with Failed to open file I can not reach all of the HTTP sites due to a local firewall - but it seems that the source download page is bugged. Thanks for the hard work you are doing! John > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark Struberg [mailto:strub...@yahoo.de] > Sent: Montag, 12.
