[Berlin-wireless] [Fwd: [OpenWrt-Devel] Release of Kamikaze 8.09]

[ulf kypke]

hallo sven, hallo liste,
seit ein paar tagen ist der server von openwrt sehr sehr langsam
geworden, das liegt vor allem am frischen release von 8.09 - alle
wollen es haben - ist ja auch kein wunder,
auf der openwrt mailingliste wurde dies auch schon angesprochen,
salverio (fuer alle die ein schlechtes namesgedaechnis haben, einer
der obamp muticast jungs aus italien) hat daher einen ersten mirror
eingerichtet, hier der link
