Hello all,
we're planning some reorganization / updates for our servers:
We will move all git repositories to a new, faster machine. In this process, the web interface will change (moving from gitweb to cgit). In this process, for a (hopefully) short time, access to the git repositories will be impossible. I will send more details when we have decided about the schedule.
For some time now, we provide not only the classic FTP server for download of the U-Boot release tarballs, but also a public directory in the Amazon Cloud Drive [1]. The ACD is supposed to provide much better connectivity (especially for non-european users) and much higher download rates.
So far, I have received zero feedback about this. I would like to hear about your experiences (good and bad), and what you think about dropping the FTP server completely.
Seems very reasonable. We came to the same conclusion recently for some of our needs.
Thanks in advance.

Works great, although all the files are relatively small (<10MB). Anyway, it took about ~5-8 seconds to download the u-boot-2015.07.tar.bz2.
