Not sure the best place to ask this, but as these are the groups
I'm familiar with...
Has anyone tried to download a soundfont from Hammersound.net recently?
That site has always been touted as the best repository for such files,
but I can't actually seem to *find* any there! The site opens up fine,
but when I navigate to any of the pages that are supposed to list the
fonts, there's nothing there! Other pages of the site seem to be OK.
I don't think it's me, because I've tried several browsers on different
machines. I've emailed Thomas Hammer a few days ago, but no response
so far.
Anyone know the situation?

Heh... good suggestion! I'd never have thought of them. That's

obviously a facility to keep in mind.
Yes, they seem to have kept up to date on Hammersound, but it looks
like they may using a mirror to do so. The link I traced from there
seems to be fully functional:

In article <uZqdnW6jUaGcT2LT...@lmi.net>,
main site -- there's nothing on the index pages themselves! However
the wayback machine still manages to link to the actual files on the
same site, so I can get things that way.
