Hi, after improving my VCS/Url check scripts, i bumped against the following: After I run my scripts some time, I seem to get firewalled, because I get "connection refused" even for urls which worked previously. [1] Tells me that [git|arch|svn|...].debian.org are all hosted on alioth.debian.org. Does anybody know who can I contact and discuss this issue? Regards, [1] http://wiki.debian.org/Alioth/FAQ#Subversion.2BAC8-arch.2BAC8-bzr.2BAC8-git.2BAC8-hg.2BAC8-darcs.2BAC8-CVS_repositories Regards, Simon On 04/27/12 14:17, Simon Kainz wrote: > On 04/26/12 18:13, Russ Allbery wrote: >> Tiago Bortoletto Vaz <tiago@debian.org> writes: >> >>> I'm with pabs about integrating it to qa.d.o, sounds really helpful :) >>> Btw, I've just checked a few links reported as error 500 and some seem >>> to not present any problem.
