[WBEL-users] possible mirror for whitebox at georgia tech - see quoted messages from ALE.org mailing list

[Van L. Loggins]

I posted to the ale.org mailing list and asked about them setting up a mirror for whitebox linux 
here is the messages if you need to get in contact with those who responded to my request. 
I know the more folks that are mirroring it, then there will be a lot less stress on the main site.

I've been attempting to download it via bittorrent at home but my download doesn't work too well thru my dsl router 
so if they can get a local mirror here in georgia I'll try to get it from there.

I am looking forward to trying this Distribution out.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Van
