Mozilla.org has been investigating the large number of reports problems associated with attempts at downloading the most recent 0.9.9 milestone release.
Early investigation points to a large increase in the traffic and demand for this release. To date it appears that approximately 135,000 downloads have been successfully completed, plus additional as yet uncounted downloads of localizations, stub installers and source code. We are uncertain about the additional download requests that we haven't been able to support. We are looking at options for quickly increasing ftp download capacity. AOL/TW has volunteered to provide additional network and ftp services to accommodate this unprecedented user demand. We are hoping to have additional resources in place very soon, hopefully later today. Please bear with us and be patient until we finalize a plan and get this extra capacity on-line. We'll post additional details once they have been finalized. Mozilla.org thanks AOL/TW for its generous response. Mitchell
