The links for SFML 1.7 and SFML 2.0 won't load for me, even manually browsing on SourceForge.

Must be a problem on your end...
What browser do you use?
Is JavaScript activated?
Does just the download not start or what's the problem?

Both Firefox and Internet Explorer, and various proxies all fail to resolve the page. SFML 1.6 downloads fine but my project requires 2.0.

Sourceforge SVN is down atm. Really do need SFML2 though.

You can still reach it trough a SVN app. I do have the latest svn revision at school. I could uppload it to my server and share it.

On my side the download just starts fine, :shock:

Just thinking, Laurent would you like to have a mirror site for something like this happens?

I can mirror it at my website and update once every week. I'll include the revision number in the archive name so the downloaders can see if it's the latest or not.

Sure, having a mirror is always better than just one source

Thanks. Let me know when it's ready, so that I can add the link to the website.

Couldn't find how to create symbolic links at my webserver so did it like this. In the future I'll place a REVISION file in the zip and write the revison number in there and a link to the sourceforge revision page.

Don't think any other information is needed?

Is it sfml2 or trunk?

Groogy · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2011, 11:35:46 pm »

sfml2, should I add that to the subdomain? Or maybe write sfml2-latest.zip
I could host mirror to both versions that way.

What about adding the date? Like sfml2-290111.zip.

Yeah thought about that or have a trailing revision number. But then there comes the problem with that you can't have a link on the webpage that will always be linked to the latest version(As I couldn't find a way to create a symbolic link trough cpanel, I don't have direct access to the server).

Anyway just to be more clear, it's now: http://sfml.groogy.se/sfml2-latest.zip

So unless you got an idea on how to keep it simple, I'll have date and revision number in a text file included in the zip.
