Title: where did the oz feeds go?
Post by: uberjoe on September 27, 2004, 12:27:52 pm

Does anyone know where the oz feeds have gone? It looks like the only feed avaliable is for 3.5.1. all the other directories are empty.  Is this a temporary restructuring, or are the good people of oz cancelling support for all prevoius (non-3.5.1) oz roms?

The feeds are gone for good. This had two reasons: 1.) We couldn't comply w/ GPL since we had no more access to the sources, 2.) Older versions than 3.5.1 are no longer supported.

Well you've got to do what you've do. The GPL is pretty important.  I have to admit to being a little dissapointed though, as I'm not ready to upgrade just yet.

I could send/email/etc. you a tarball of the feed, it's a bit big though (60Mb??)

Or someone else may have the tarball available and can put it up long enough for you to download it.

Hi Ho,
there is Mirror:

http://www.hentges.net/misc/openzaurus/feeds/ (http://www.hentges.net/misc/openzaurus/feeds/)

Thanks to CoreDump.

I will also keep working on my Packages which are also compiled with the 3.3.6-pre1 toolchain/OE.
You can find for example Kopi/Kapi Packages there:

I like 3.5.1 but am too lazy to update my everyday Zaurus.
Have fun,
Sam

I have been thinking that I want to provide mirroring for OZ.  I just need to know how much space is needed to become a mirror like hentges.  I have quite a bit of free space on my web-server.  Is there a howto on mirroring for OZ or do I simply copy the directories to my server? And how do I keep it up to date.

I really dig the direction OZ is going and would like to help out..
