gnexus: Hi. Nice to meet you too. By the way, great way to introduce yourself to the group here. Nothing quite like starting off at a new forum with a rant. What's especially impressive is that you managed to post such a redundant and unproductive one.
0. Could you at least *try* titling your posts appropriately. Maybe instead of "Why should I develop for the N800?" you really meant "Listen to me whine about the mirror situation WRT maemo.org"?
1. There have been like a dozen threads started with this exact rant. Maybe adding your post to one of those would have been better?
2. We're not Nokia. It's not our fault that Nokia's servers are overloaded (except insomuch as we're mobbing them, downloading files.). Many of the users here actually have mirrors up, but they are partial, temporary and/or intentionally not publicized.
3. The situation has already been addressed by Nokia. Nokia is supposedly paying for decent bandwidth and apparently using Akamai for caching but obviously it looks like their setup is in some way screwed up and/or Nokia or a third party dropped the ball.

So, why not send a note to Nokia corporate about it, or call their customer service. AFAIK the only people who work at Nokia and are active on these forums agree with us that the situation sucks right now and aren't in a position to do anything about it. You're preaching to the choir here.

Have a nice day!
