TTCS OSSWIN v1.60, compilation of Free and Open Source Software for Windows
As a FYI, The Trinidad and Tobago Computer Society is pleased to announce the release of the TTCS OSSWIN v1.60, a collection of the latest version of Free and Open Source Software for Microsoft Windows (10/8/7/Vista/XP) for download. The name change from TTCS OSSWIN DVD to TTCS OSSWIN was done to reflect that whilst the collection can (for now) be burned on a DVD, DVDs are becoming less prevalent on many modern Windows computers and that TTCS OSSWIN can be extracted to the hard drive or to USB flash drives. The TTCS OSSWIN collection features a web based interface for browsing programs organised into several categories: Desktop Applications, Educational, Games, Graphics, Internet, Server, Sound and Video and Utilities. Lots of software updates for TTCS OSSWIN v1.60, including LibreOffice 5.2.1, Mozilla Firefox 48.0.2, Virtualbox 5.1.6 and more. See the changelog for more details. Visit the TTCS OSSWIN page at http://www.cs.tt/osswin for more details and to download the collection as an ISO file for burning onto a DVD or extracting to your harddrive or USB storage device.

Hi, http://www.cs.tt/osswin/#How_can_I_get_the_TTCS_OSSWIN has "You can download the ISO from hubiC. (We welcome mirrors! Email info@cs.tt)" So I added bcc: info@cs.tt It would be nice if you added specific URLs for ftp:// http:// that could be used by eg fetch, 'cos my firefox either crashes or gets closed by accident, or I want to close earlier to flush cache & cookie pollution etc, long before hours are up to fetch 4G. Giving an FTP URL would allow eg "reget" in ftp for partial images. Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey, BSD Linux Unix Sys Eng Consultant Munich Reply below, Prefix '> '.

Hi, it seems I'm unable to get the files due to HubiC's **possibly** non-free JS (see <https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.en.html> for more information on the problem), perhaps we should change to Savannah (<http://savannah.gnu.org/>)? Also, I'm starting a similar project, called Libre Media Collection (see <http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/libre-media>), instead of non-free Firefox, I decided to include GNU IceCat instead. I'm still setting up the project resources (I'll probably switch from CVS to Git or to GNU Bazaar). Respectfully, Adonay. -- # pt-BR: Brasileiro | en: Brazilian * pt-BR: Palestra sobre liberdade de software (movimento filosófico político-social, não tecnológico). * en: Gives talks about software freedom (philosophical, political and social movement, not technological). * pt-BR: Voluntário avaliador de liberdade de software (para software pagos ou gratuitos). * en: Volunteer evaluator of software freedom (for paid software, or gratis software). * pt-BR: Presta suporte e consultoria básicos sobre software livre. * en: Gives basic support and consulting about free/libre software. ## pt-BR: Sobre mim e contato | en: About me and contact <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/User:Adfeno>
Thanks for the feedback, Julian. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of free or low cost hosting for such a relatively large file (just under 4GB) that would allow such direct linking via http or ftp. Are you aware of such hosting? Dev Anand On Thu, Oct 13, 2016 at 6:12 AM, Julian H. Stacey <jhs@berklix.com> wrote:
