Problems downloading from sourceforge?

[eventerke]

I'm trying to get some of the latest plugins for my sage install.
All the sourceforge mirrors point to kent.dl.sourceforge.net (UKMIRROR) - I can't get *anything* from this site.
Does this mirror just suck, or are there any alternate download sites?

its a problem for everyone,and has been for at least 24hrs: look at the number of tickets:

Thanks - kinda silly that there's only one "mirror"

It got fixed yesterday: the entire mirroring network went down for 2 days, and it took them a day to notice !

(from the site status page)

( 2006-10-23 06:58:02 - ) 2006-10-23: The issue involving the mirror network not being fully available over the weekend is now resolved. Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused.

( 2006-10-22 09:46:28 - ) As of 2006-10-21 the mirror page for SourceForge.net is listing only the Kent download mirror in England as available. We are researching the cause of this issue and hope to have it resolved soon.
