I think nightlies.adium.im used to serve files hosted on Rackspace. Nightlies is gone, but is rackspace still serving files somewhere?

Also, https://sourceforge.net/projects/adium/ is still going, and reports 39 downloads this week! Can we kill that?

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for looking into this.

I don’t know.

Didn’t we use SourceForge to lessen the burden on Cachefly? In Adium’s current situation I can’t imagine there are enough downloads for this to be an issue…

Kind regards,
Robbie

Probably a good idea to be rid of the sourceforge page as it appears to have an outdated version hosted anyway.

Can/should we get the dmg for 1.5.10.4 added as a release on GitHub and use that to host future releases (should they come to fruition)?

Sounds good to me!

It looks like only the following accounts are authorized to remove Adium from Sourceforge. Or maybe nor all admins have the same privileges. I'm not one, so I can't tell.

I found a 2014 email from Thijs indicating that Rackspace had contacted him about a system migration, and that the new IP address would be 162.209.126.109. That's still a rackspace IP, but isn't pingable.

I also found a 2011 email where Colin mentioned "our lovely contact at Rackspace". 

Perhaps Thijs or Colin either have an update in email, or know who to contact?
