Good stuff and good work, better late than never.

Great timing too, I've just reinstalled Windows and need to install a few apps & updates. :p

How long shall the upload process take?

[Robert McClelland]

Yay! =) Good work.

I kinda feel like I'm back in the newsgroup of Vista's beta testing stage, (im)patiently waiting for the new build to be released! :-P

How Large/What is XP May's filesize?

[+theblazingangel MVC]

7 releases (3 core releases, 4 addon packs)

total size: 909 MB

total uploaded so far: 130 MB, not sure on time taken so far (had to reboot computer) but probably an hour or two.

release sizes:

2K May 2007 ENU Core: 232 MB

2K3 May 2007 x86 ENU Core: 226 MB

XP May 2007 x86 ENU Core: 304 MB

XP MCE2005 May 2007 x86 ENU Addon: 34.2 MB

XP WMP10 May 2007 x86 ENU Addon: 43.6 MB

DirectX May 2007 x86 ENU Addon: 33.1 MB

Extras May 2007 x86 ENU Addon: 34.5

last time i uploaded full/lite releases (nov 2006) i had to upload a total of 1742 MB, so 909 MB this time from replacing full/lite with core + addons is really good going

[OldFawkz]

Nice news, blaze... really nice!

ETA guesses for uploads to be there and .torrent files to be created, assuming things go smoothly? (I'm guessing tomorrow morning :whistle: )

And.. going to change the banner from "almost ready" to "uploading"? :)

[+Tantawi Subscriber²]

Nice work, theblazingangel, congratulations and waiting :)

[+theblazingangel MVC]

damn it, just lost at least 1.5 hours worth of uploading, i was trying to make sure our family pc was up to date but i couldn't establish an internet connection, i checked out my router settings and found the last time i was there i limited the number of DHCP addresses, my laptop is currently using a wired connection because it's more stable when transferring large amounts of data, and it was now occupying the only available address. i changed the setting in the router hoping it would not affect the upload but it caused my laptop to reconnect, i was assuming that my ftp software would allow me to resume the upload but no, it won't, it's started that file all over again nd it was one of the large core releases as well :(

damn ftp software, why can't there be a pause button, or better resume support or something...

[TheTempestSonata]

oh well. I'm grateful for your dedication

it goes a little off schedule? oh well, whatever... you're a godsend.

[the tecky]

I need them all (for my customers) :rofl: :whistle:

I can't wait!

I did help out in the past by providing a mirror, and I will do it again for this release. I have about 2TB to share, so should I be contacting you blaze or shall I just wait and post a link later?

[electronicswhizz]

Fantastic! :D Do we know when these will be available on the mirrors/torrents? My whole day is planned around reinstalling windows on my entire network now that autopatcher is being released, so an ETA would really help :) Thanks!

As soon as I get a PM from Blaze (or notice the post on the forums) I'll be grabbing the releases and creating torrents.

Might not be the second they're out tho cos I'll be at work but I'll try my best!

[OldFawkz]

Tick tick tick tick ... :)

You can almost feel the "edge of seat" anticipation here, if you listen carefully enough :)

I can't think of a more anticipated event since... oh, I dunno... Alexander the Great invented Magna Carta and the Quantum Microprocessor, thus allowing humanity to reach universal enlightenment last Friday? :)

[kimsland]

Someone dropped a pin, I can't concentrate with all this noise!

Arrrr!

Now refresh/reload page; damn no change
