Ah, yes, the button has updated now. Thank you!

It's still leading to "Service Unavailable", but I'll keep trying.

Yeah, I got a "buttonless" version too, refreshed and the button appeared...

So I've downloaded a Linux version and a Windows version. Despite the fact that they were so hung over from their party last night that they obviously couldn't even find the on switch for their monitors this morning. I hope they're happy.

Well, I got it. It's the same (or at least same MD5...) as the one I got earlier. And it downloads fast, though I didn't catch where from (too overjoyed at finally getting there).

Lesson #1: DON'T invite the whole world to jump on you.
Lesson #2: When you invite the whole world to jump on you, DON'T use server-side scripting!

there servers are getting hammered....wonder if its gonna cause a rolling brownout

Yeah, that might have been the worst roll-out I've ever seen.

Apparently they rolled RC3 and rebranded it into 3.0 with no other changes. The delay we experienced was a labeling-merge issue from what everyone on reddit were saying.

Reminds me of the NIT repositories when they released OS2008 final.

ff3 is already on some torrent sites...

Perhaps after this all settles down, the Firefox web server folks should go have some beers with the team at Amazon that witnessed the Xbox 360 meltdown.

Indeed....

Thanks, qole. I just ssh'd several hops to get to my main linux workstation at home, navigate to the Desktop for my 'normal' user, and start the wget ... maybe it'll be done by the time I get home.
