Hi Gordon,

That particular page is protected, I assume only Robert and the
webmaster can edit it...
I agree that getting the files from SVN is not a big deal. If you don't
want to, just browse to the same link (it's http after all) and download
the files manually, or download them all recursively with wget.
This does not fix anything for the OP since he's using VS71 and that
branch is essentially frozen as I understand, but I still wanted to
mention that for people who don't want to use SVN for some reason to get
the VS80 dependencies.
However, Mike, do the zips you posted contain source? Since you no
longer have access to a VS71 build environment, I think it would be nice
to make the source of the dependencies package available (in one
complete package), so people who do can build them themselves if they
want to. So perhaps a separate source zip would be nice.
And I would suggest two changes to the page once Robert gets back from
his trip:
A) Make the text much clearer where it says that the new dependencies
package is REQUIRED for OSG 2.3+. Maybe move the old dependencies
package to an archived page for people who still use 2.2-.
B) Upload the zips to the wiki directly, instead of linking to Mike's
site. It not only looks more "official" that way, but the side benefit
would be that others could contribute pre-built dependencies for build
environments Mike doesn't have access to (if the page is un-protected,
of course).
