archlinuxfr: is it really up?

Hi,

Subj. Never an update in about six weeks, which is funny.

Why funny??
You never give me any money in about 22 years, which is funny.

I'm not affiliated with archlinuxfr (I neither use their repo now, but I used for some time), but I know they do a good work, so a little respect is needed. They can have problems or are occupied with work/woman/men/children...

You asked as that they are obligated to provide you their services. I really think that is not the intended but wording can hurt.

And your "six weeks" means 16 days.

Sorry for the rant. Wait and someone will give you a more friendly reply (dont feed the troll).

EDIT: Corrected my age.

Re: archlinuxfr: is it really up?

fun•ny 1   (fun‚Ћ)  adj., -ni•er, -ni•est, n., pl. -nies — adj.

1. providing fun; causing amusement or laughter; amusing; comical: a funny remark; a funny person.

2. attempting to amuse; facetious: Did you really mean that or were you just being funny?.

3. warranting suspicion; deceitful; underhanded: We thought there was something funny about those extra charges.

4. Informal. insolent; impertinent: Don't get funny with me, young man!.

5. curious; strange; peculiar; odd: Her speech has a funny twang.

It's (5), in this case. I mean "The updates appear to come no longer. Why?". If, for some reason, the repo has been shut down, temporarily or otherwise, I'd like to know. That's all.

@hokasch
archlinuxfr.abs.tar.gz was modified, but the last new apps are 16 days old.

@Llama
Hat tip for keeping it cool.

I don't use that repo but judging from the latest packages the updates are infrequent. They host only a small number of apps so maybe there's nothing to update atm.
mumble was updated 22/04/2010 and it's in the ten newest updates.
