Ok, so as many of you know, I run Ubuntu on my laptop, and generally like to lend a helping hand wherever its appropriate when working on/with Ubuntu. With the latest release of herd-5, I realized the Feisty release is not far away. I happen to have a hosting plan with quite a bit of bandwidth that isn’t really used for much beyond this blog and a few of my own packages/sources. So, to lend as best a hand as I can for release time, I have decided to host an iso release mirror.

The actual mirror url is here.

I encourage anyone who is going to be downloading Feisty iso’s to try and use mirrors like mine (generally extremely low usage) to help us keep the master servers alive on release day. I expect my mirror will have the images within 35-45 minutes of release (if not before, maybe there’s some awesome way for those of us planning on mirroring to grab releases before the craze starts).
