The point of my message was two-fold. A server that fedoraproject.org points to doesn't work. Perhaps you can do something about it? (Wake up the responsible person, or make the website point somewhere else?) It is hard to find an alternative for downloading a spin (if you can't or don't want to use a torrent). It's easy to find mirrors (the page you referred to), but that page doesn't indicate whether the mirror has spins available. -- Sjoerd Mullender
