[Freeswitch-users] files.freeswitch.org abusive users

[Brian West]

We were unreachable for a bit due to our datacenter move and rework of how
we are going to handle files.freeswitch.org, If everyone was in such a bind
because of that, please use the Paypal button on the website so we can beef
up our infrastructure even more.  As of now we are paying 100% of the cost
of hardware, colo and bandwidth.

To answer your questions:

1. It should now return the proper modification dates due to no longer
using the CDN.
2. there is no need to download the repo, just add it to your sources.lst,
apt-get install or apt-get update.

Thanks,
