Wolvix build downloads: hold off unless a dev or bonafide tester

Longboard · Feb 23, 2009

info:
The users at Wolvix forums have been upset that Wolvix does not get the attention it deserves and so seem to have encouraged DW to take a greater interest with some (not) unexpected issues:

Someone got a bit too eager. =) (Posted: 2009-02-23)
Looks like someone got a bit too eager and tipped off DistroWatch about the latest development build ISO, or that DW has been snooping around on the user forums. =) It's great to see that people are anticipating the next Wolvix release and that they are curious to see what the development status is. However this is a bit unfortunate as there are still a few bugs I'd liked to have fixed before the ISO went public and as the ISO is hosted on my private internet connection it means that all downloaders are getting a crappy DL rate.
I ask those of you who have downloaded build39 and who are reading this to please set up a torrent for me at LinuxTracker, so I can get some traffic off my server and people can get better download speeds. (P.S. We only need one torrent, so check on LT if one already exist and help seed instead.) Once a torrent is up I'll inform DW so a new download link can be set up.
In other news for those who've been following us the last months, you've probably noticed that the website did not go down as I feared. Why the site did not go down is a mystery to me, as I was not able to pay the bill before it was WAY over due. Guess the Linux gods are watching out for us. ;-) I want to thank everyone who has donated you helped me get over a financially difficult time. I'm back on track again (for now).
We are getting close to the first beta release of Wolvix 2.0.0 now, the plan is to have it ready before the end of this month, (February) but some unforeseen personal issues has come up, so there might be a slight delay.
That's all for now, keep an eye out for the beta and please help me set up that torrent I mentioned above.
Cheers!
Wolven
UPDATE:Oithona has set up a second download mirror for the build ISO: Wolvix-2.0.0-build39.iso
