OICS Server as repo for ANY engine author for web distributi

Post by jshriver »

The OICS server has been up for years and mostly been used for EGTB "torrent site" But the server has lots of space, and now thank to 5 generous donators, fully paid for at least 1 years.

I'd be open to create accounts and allow webspace for people.
It's a 40gig server, so lots of space.

I could EVEN create a git server if desired.

I just want to allow budding chess enthuasiast a space to share, develope. Being 100% Honest!

I all I request with new accounts is no illegal content.
-Josh

If you want your own website and webspace, I will host it freely.. given olympuschess.com but I can give you a subdomain like derpchess.olympushcess.com.

I noticed as well. I've seeded 6-men WDL + DTZ recently, but seeding turns into red and i have to update tracker often.

Maybe olympus torrent site is preferable when distributing new dtm syzygy.

Thank you very much for seeding! It's what makes the site work.
