 I believe hg.python.org is on a different machine than python.org. It has
 occasionally been down, but works fine with Firefox. Sometimes connections
 fail even if both endpoints are working. If you have a particular persistent
 problem with hg.python.org, I suggest talking to your ISP.

 Cloning the CPython repository may take an hour or two if that is what you
 are trying to do.

It takes 15 minutes to clone with hg from hg.python.org on my machine.
It takes 4 minutes on the same machine to clone the semi-official
github mirror using git: 'git clone
https://github.com/python/cpython.git'

Those times are obviously affected by the fact that I have a very good
internet connection at work: neither of the above operations comes
close to the maximum bandwidth that I can access from some servers.
Perhaps if there are problems with hg.python.org you might want to try
the github mirror though.

hg.python.org: Server unresponsive and timeout

2013-10-02 Thread Tae Wong
This post is irrelevant from using Python; so it's an Internet server problem.

When you try to connect to hg.python.org, the connection takes forever.

How to fix this server issue?

(Note that this is the community discussion forum for the Python
langauge; it is perhaps not the best forum to report problems with
python.org infrastructure.)

What client are you using to connect? Is there an exact command that we
can try, to see whether the problem is reproducible?

 How to fix this server issue?

The monitor site URL:http://status.python.org/ says that
‘hg.python.org’ is operational when I check, so whoever investigates the
problem will need more detail on what you're trying to do and what
exactly isn't working.

If a reproducible issue is discovered, to whom should it be reported?
The Python bug tracker doesn't seem to allow reports of fault in the
python.org infrastructure.

Report it here to verify that the problem is not limited to one computer 
and it will be seen by someone who also posts to pydev.

will check for you. I found it by searching 'down for everyone'.
