If you want a copy of the final version of Ubuntu 7.04 “Feisty
Fawn,” it’s out there now–but everyone else is trying to get to it
too.
The influx of traffic to the Ubuntu.com servers is causing a
very strong slowdown in the Web site’s response times, and
occasionally 503 errors are being reported back.
The release notes
for version 7.04 are now available, as is the download page. Users are
cautioned to expect very slow response times during this initial
crush of traffic. Bittorrent downloads are also available, and as
of this morning, they are very healthy. Linux Today
encourages those with .torrent clients to pull down copies using
that method, rather than a direct download.
If a direct download is preferred, this complete mirror list
will guide you to a local mirror site.
A quick sampling of mirror sites shows that they are currently
populated with version 7.04 files.
