Oolite Bulletins

Am I being stupid or has something happened to oolite.org ?

I was looking for the download page for the 64 bit version of Oolite for Ubuntu.

Am I being stupid or are
http://www.oolite.org/download
and
http://oolite.org/
not doing what they were before?


I did find what I was looking for (oolite-1.76.linux-x86_64.tgz) at developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3577&release_id=18857 but it is odd that the "project oolite news" at http://developer.berlios.de/forum/forum ... m_id=37645 points at http://www.oolite.org which is showing the Berlios home page.

Hmm, odd. It's mirrored to Sourceforge now, I believe... this link may help.

I notice that someone has spelt laser as 'lazer', and there are no reviews as yet!

Yep, the usual oolite.org pages are missing in action at the moment.... hopefully it should be sorted soon-ish!

It's mirrored to Sourceforge now,

Yes..Sourceforge seems to be the place to get the latest trunk game now

Wait, so the homepage has just been scrapped? Or is it being rebuilt somewhere else?

I expect it will return soon, OotL. Someone at the Admiralty will know.

Wow the site is offline for a long time now. I'm still being redirected to the BerliOS page.

The BerliOS stats page seems to say that there have been no downloads of Oolite since 24/2/12... odd that!

I downloaded the amd64 Linux version on 4th April: graph

and the stats for oolite-linux suggest something gets downloaded about 130 times a day: graph

Am I looking in a different place (e.g. graphs v number tables) or at a different thing (e.g. Linux v PC)?

Yeah, the sourceforge mirror shows downloads. Maybe the BerliOS page stopped listing downloads when it got mirrored to sourceforge.

What would I know, I'm just a dumb pilot!

Just to let you know, the oolite.org site is still safe and sound, and temporarily accessible via

http://oolite-linux.berlios.de

And there's always some truth in dumb pilots' words! ( maybe not always easy to find, though! )

Anyway, it seems berlios moved a few servers & settings around, meaning that oolite.org was suddenly pointing at the empty space where a virtual server used to be.
The relevant settings have just been updated, but this being easter weekend, it might take a while for oolite.org to finally point to what we've been assured is a new! improved! virtual server...

Cheers,

Kaks.

<chuckles>

oolite.org now looks as it should again.
