17 | <p>Things are progressing. I've gathered all the packages that were originally on <a href="http://www.mondorescue.org">http://www.mondorescue.org</a> and also added Mike's SuSE RPMs
|
---|
18 | + all the latest packages I've produced and put them on a new ftp server
|
---|
19 | accessible at <a href="ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org">ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org</a>
|
---|
20 | </p><p>
|

21 | You may have issues to access to it yet, as I've done a DNS refresh this
|
---|
22 | night and propagation could not be made everywhere now.
|

|

24 | FYI:

52 | I think that it's time to promote our revisions to a newer version, as a
|
---|
53 | proof of increased stability, and result of lots of cleanup and
|
---|
54 | improvements, even if some small known bugs remain (and other could
|
---|
55 | always appear). So here are mindi 1.06 / mondo 2.06 aka Christmas
|
---|
56 | Release :-)

78 | they should be working correctly for most of the cases (including now

81 | I'll off till begining of next year, so I wish you all the best for this
