Re: [Mldonkey-users] FYI: News from savannah.nongnu.org

Hi,

OK, so let's try to make this as painless as we can to everybody.

For mldonkey users reading this here's the settings to change in your 
downloads.ini:

 network_update_url = "http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/mldonkey/network/";

 web_infos = [
  ("server.met", 1, 
"http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/mldonkey/network/servers.met";);
  ("server.met", 1, 
"http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/mldonkey/network/servers.met";);

Just change the savannah.nongnu.org to something like 'localhost' ... 
downloading these files won't work then but it currently doesn't work anyway 
and at least it takes the load off the savannah server. Plus you'll still be 
able to change the settings later when the files come online at a different 
place.

To the devels: Are there any plans of changing the defaults? I would propose to 
just change them for now (as I said before, they don't work anyway so we can 
just as well try to get the load of the webserver in question ASAP) and then 
see where those files could be hosted without being of trouble to anyone.

Greetings,
        Michel
