    We’re about 30% complete but have transitioned more than half of our outbound data transfer.  The hosts for Linux distributions and software mirrors, as well as the live audio streams for WCPE, WDAV, WNCW, WXYC, and WCOM, are in shiny new virtual homes.  Outbound traffic from the new infrastructure topped 300 Mbps today.

  • A New Look at ibiblio.org


    Welcome to the new ibiblio.org!

    We’ve been working busily over the past few months to revamp the main ibiblio.org web site. Our primary goals are to offer a more pleasant visual experience and to facilitate the discovery of the wealth of material we host. Central to this effort is a new collection catalog, which contains references to the web sites and projects housed at ibiblio.org. We hope that you will use this site as a resource to access the diverse information domains hosted by ibiblio and follow along with us as we participate in the open source community.
