Hi, trying to get the official 5.6.3 mingw32 offline installer (which I then found on ICS’ mirror), I’ve noticed:
- The server has everything <= 5.1 and >= 5.9, but everything in between seems still missing? - On the old server, the top-level directory for the old releases was “new_archive”, now it’s “new-archive”, which leads to dead links in Google. That should be easy to fix. Regards, > On 22.
