It requires wget (which Mac OSX doesn’t ship with), so it would
have to be distributed in a DMG for Mac users.
|
On the other hand, Mac OS X does come with
curl, so maybe it could be
adapted to use that.

There are many instructions how to install wget and even some installers. curl
can’t beat ‘wget -m’ afaik.

Speaking of hosting LDraw files - what exactly is the story with the
“Official Model Repository”? Is there
any such actual repository? If not, would this be a good time for the LDraw
community to implement the idea? (Forgive my ignorance if this topic has been
resolved one way or the other - I’m just curious.)
|
No official repository afaik. Last I heard was that we want to build it, but
that requires a developer with the time to build it!

Anyway, Brickshelf must be going out with a bang as far as bandwidth is
concerned.

Does anyone know the chances of just taking all the Brickshelf files and hosting
them somewhere else? Not brickshelf’s functionality, just the files? That way
they can be left up for much longer than July 31st.
