Last night he brought a book called Bugs!, and The Lorax.
He still sometimes reads the books here:
Does Bill have children? Being a dad is a wonderful excuse to enjoy lovely books like these! Dad's must have fun! It's our duty!

OOPS! Seems like that "more recognition" thing isn't working for XFree86 people. Interesting...

Is it not possible that the tracker be hosted on a server with higher availability? It seems odd to me that Redhat haven't yet embraced Bittorrent enough to host the tracker on a server in the redhat.com domain. If anyone knows of a torrent file pointing to a working/available tracker then please let me know!

1. I run the torrent tracker in the announcement and yours is the first complaint I've heard. 2.96TB of the i386 binary isos were downloaded since 10am monday - so I'd say it's working fairly well. 2. Since fedora core is not solely contributed to by red hat it makes sense that someone not at red hat would be running the tracker (among other things) -sv

I occasionally use BitTorrent for other things, so I don't think it was a problem with my configuration. At the time, I assumed it was because it was a while after the release, and that it had taken offline. Thanks,
As I've said before, this is one of the reasons I love open source and free software organizations and companies. You'll never see a big proprietary house put out release announcements in Dr Suesse rhyme format. :)

It might even be apt-gettable
However, this release will long be unforgettable
This story on Monday morning is unregrettable
Shhhesh :)
What a great release post!
Wishing you well.
I sit my 4 year old son on lap on the bed every night and read him at least one book; he usually chooses two or three.
I guess Bill has kids too!
Is the part in the middle from either of these books, or is it from another one?
"Also X.org is new,Fedora Core 2 Test 2 available
replacing XFree, test it too."
Very funny - I love it!

I'd love to download the DVD iso image using Bittorrent in order to reduce the load on any one server, and help the community with my bittorent uploads. Unfortunately I'm getting the message "Tracker Status: offline (timeout)" using Azureus right now.Fedora Core 2 Test 2 available
Hi,Fedora Core 2 Test 2 available

IIRC, BitTorrent didn't work for me with Fedora Core 1 in January.Fedora Core 2 Test 2 available
