My 56K modem has been busy on the gnome.org site and hasn't had trouble with the snapshots nor downloading cvs files. Downloading as I'm typing.

Other sites were talking about gnome 2 before /. In fact, I saw the announcement on PCLinuxOnline. And the developer of CVSGnome emailed me his notice of the improved scripts seconds after he uploaded it. BTW: According to the news.com interview of /. -- there are 6000 posts daily done by 50% of the visitors. The other half read and leave. So, that means only 12,000 daily visitors??? Sorry, but I operated a site in 1995 that had 250,000 visitors per month - and it wasn't considered huge. Something in the math just never adds up for /. Maybe hype? Maybe my math ;-) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
