Quickest Mirror

QuickestMirror lets you quickly and easily access data replicated ("mirrored") on several Internet servers such as the popular Info-Mac mirrors. To solve the problem, I devised a new URL scheme that maps a single URL to a list of URLs. For more info, check out the QuickestMirror web page: Also, TidBITS published my article about QuickestMirror: QuickestMirror requires: System 7 or later; InternetConfig (possibly 1.1 or later, 1.4 or later recommended); a 68020 processor or better (it runs native on PowerPC-based Macs). It requires Open Transport 1.1.1 or later to assess network performance; MacTCP users will still be able to pick a server at random, which is better than a fixed selection. New since 1.0.1: * Supports Vremya by Kirill Levchenko The Vremya application can set your Macintosh system clock accurately. QuickestMirror stores a list of public Network Time servers via an experimental "x-ntp" URL notation. * Added Anarchie-like ratings to the About box. * Improved scripting support, especially with regard to UserLand Frontier. DocServer help text is now included! * Fixed several URLs in the archive. * Updated the docs.
