Hi Anderson,

I found your live555 backup/mirror project here. Nice work.

I'm currently doing a similar project to preserve the historic record of the live555 source code. See https://github.com/lengfeld/live555-unofficial-archive/ and https://lengfeld.github.io/live555-unofficial-archive/.

It seems that you have stopped downloading tarballs from the live555 website. This is a gentle request to keep updating your mirror :-) There should be multiple independent parties on the internet making backups of the live555 source code. Otherwise it's impossible to have a authentic record of all released versions. The original live555 author does not sign the tarballs/releases with a cryptographic checksum.

Kind regards,
Stefan
