www.avisynth.org - mirrors?

[bilu]

Hi all,

It's very difficult to access the site from Portugal, @work or @home.
Are there any mirrors? I think some are needed, given that it is a repository for documentation, plugins and soon (I hope ;) ) for guides. (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=43163)

Good timing -- now that I'm back, the new server should be up in a couple days.

File-serving, yes? :cool:


btw, your choice of Wiki was spot on. At first I had my (silent) doubts, but I must say I was wrong - it's an amazing thing. Hope more people will start adding their tips, guides and hints too!

Would be really great to upload filters to one common place...

Isn't the ability to edit the wiki and just insert a hyperlink to wherever a filter is stored, the most flexible solution.

It ensures that uses can get the most uptodate filter version without authors duplicating uploads.

If any authors are a "slow" to add their filter to the wiki, then enthusiastic users can do it instead :)

If anyone doesn't have their own web space - I'm fairly certain Donald would host it for them.

I generally agree, but the webpages of the autors may change, be not available,... (as is still the case with some VD filters)

Just a little easier for users.

Good point :o

But I don't think a lot of authors will be keen to upload twice :(

There aren't so many...

Btw, does someone now if it would be legally correct to host such a plugin without permission of the author?

[Richard Berg]

If they are GPL, absolutely. Nevertheless, it never hurts to get permission.
