Hi folks,

According to this message, Mandrake 9.1 is done and will be coming
out shortly:

http://archives.mandrakelinux.com/cooker/2003-02/msg09521.php

While we would normally host isos of new linux distributions, we 
have found that this takes far too much bandwidth.  We can host them,
but the download rate is so slow that it doesn't make sense to grab
ISOs from our site.  Because of this, we think it doesn't make since 
for us to continue hosting them.  Hosting the individual RPMs from 
the various distros will continue, as this takes a lot less bandwidth,
and we will also keep updates posted.  As always, you can use
up2date, apt-get, or urpmi to automatically grab packages (see
the Member services FAQ at http://members.trilug.org for more info).

For the isos themselves, please check the normal mirrors:

http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ftp.php3
http://www.redhat.com/download/mirror.html
http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

Also note that Ibiblio is one of our best (and local too) mirrors
for many linux distributions:

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/

Our mirrors and other TriLUG member services are made possible
by the wonderful folks at Inflow (http://www.inflow.com/).

Cheers,
Tanner
