F7 Mirrors Open?

[Thomas Paine]

Any mirrors hosting F7 open yet? Does anyone know if they will open at
midnight tonight?

[sizo nsibande]

I think they will only start being hosted around midnight (remember
though that your midnight is not my midnight!) I see I am not the only
one anxciouse about this release, I just can't wait.

Fedora releases have traditionally happened around 10 A.M. U.S. 
east coast time. Of course, that's midnight on some timezone :-)

Well you could get RC2 from a torrent.

10am US Eastern time?

Sheesh! That's 3pm here. Do I have to wait that long?

Not really. You can the RC2 from http://torrent.fedoraproject.org. There 
are small amount of changes between that and the general release. If you 
are doing mass redistribution waiting is better.

You might also get leaked mirrors and pray that you got the right 
version but I wouldn't suggest that.

No, I want to wait for the real release, but I was fishing if anyone
had noticed an open mirror. :)

There appears to be some mirrors with the ISOs already uploaded. For
example, somebody posted this link in IRC:
http://fedora.mirror.iweb.ca/releases/7/Fedora/i386/iso/
Up to you whether you want to trust it or not.

until after 10:00 eastern tomorrow.

Regarding F7 i think that it is quite silly to not even mention the
upcoming release on the Fedora front page. I mean, having

"Fedora 6, the latest evolution of free software"

on the page when Fedora 7 is about to be released any hour now.

And so, the torrent for F7 is now visible.

Unforch Dave, it appears that vz has found the azureas ports and blocked them 
as it all came to a screeching halt about half an hour ago, after about 900 
megs was onsite.  What ports can we shuffle this to, or do we sue the 
bastards?

I setup some more port forwards in dd-wrt, and told azureas about them, and 
there is now a small amount of data getting through.  I repeat, bastards, and 
if you call and yell at them, they will of course deny it because the minute 
they admit it they no longer enjoy that Common Carrier status with the FCC.

I use Verizon DSL.  I use the standard BitTorrent ports and have them open
in my firewall.  I got a full-speed download, after restarting it once -- I
had a partial RC2 download that I repurposed, which may have led me to get
less than useful peers the first time.  It's currently sharing at the
max_upload_rate I set.

On what ports Tony?  Here I have 6969 which AIUI is the tracker port, 
forwarded & cleared all the way through, with 7000 and 36000 to 37000 for use 
as data, all setup and port forwarded to this box from dd-wrt.  Currently 
making about 80kB on a 1.5mb link, seems to have leveled off at that average, 
with about 37 to 40kB up.  Half the normal dl speed in other words.

Well, lessee, I just turned my torrent back on and my upload rate is an
aggregate of about 3MB/s and share ratios of between 224% and 400%.  I'm
on an OC3 here at the office.

I'm contributing!  Heheheheheh!

I use 1720 with success. Also turn on encryption.

Ports 6881-6999, which are the default ports that bittorrent-curses (and
BitTorrent in general) listens on.

Are you running a tracker?  I'm not.  I'm just a User, not a Publisher.

Once you have the proper ports opened up, you should stop and restart the
BitTorrent client.
