[mesa-users] svn download error

[Bill Paxton]

Hi,

I've occasionally had problems with sourceforge refusing a connection.  Sometimes I'd give it a few minutes and then it would work.   You might try any magical incantations you've learned in your graduate physics classes.   "By the ghost of Gauss and the eyelashes of Einstein, I command you computer to work properly this time."   It might help.

Good luck,
Bill

After some failed attempts at restarting that checkout that resulted in a system freeze, the first mesa directory was deleted and a fresh checkout was attempted, but this error has occurred every time. Any thoughts on what might be causing this refusal of service?
