I've got the same problem. All the addresses starting with CA just time out

[Tyler (tyler-rimstad)]

I am not getting any response from 129.97.134.71 either

Thanks for your bugreport.

This sounds like the network server used was overloaded, could you please try again?

[mrh (mark-heieis)]

Tried it again and this time it worked. No other issues arose and the upgrade to 8.04 worked well.

Thanks,

mrh.

[Michael Vogt (mvo)]

Thanks mrh and sorry for the (earlier) trouble! Happy to hear that the upgrade worked fine for you.
