It's risky. I can be used as Plan C, not even B. Plan A: we must have a very stable server where we can host the ISO. Plan B: we need a mirror.

I have been there. I've learned the lesson. I don't want to take more risks. If you're happy to deal with him, that's your choice. You can use his server as a mirror. Our main hosted ISO must be somewhere else with less chances of such failure. I don't want our users to face such issue again. I know from the technical side it happens. The Q is: how long it needs to be fixed? here comes the real challenge. I can't monitor the links 24/7. So, we need alternatives. > > Best regards > Nio > Thanks! -- Remember: "All of us are smarter than any one of us." Best Regards, Ali/amjjawad <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/amjjawad>
