[LLVMdev] svn down?

[Ray Fix]

Hello,

I had a question tangentially related to svn.    I am very new to  
LLVM.  It seems like a long road to making my own backend, but I am  
wading through the documentation and experimenting with the code and  
having a lot of fun with it.  I would like to try various experimental  
things out and also keep track of the latest changes.  It seems like  
this is very difficult to do with svn.

Fortunately (or so I thought), last week I found that http:// 
repo.or.cz/ was hosting a mirror of the repo in git.  This gives me  
exactly what I want--the ability to try out things without disturbing  
anyone but also allows me to keep current.    I could be wrong about  
this, but it seems like the git mirror stopped working about 3 days  
ago and I wonder it is because of the server policy change.  I am  
wondering if using an outside resource like this frowned upon?  (i.e.  
considered an abusive practice)  Is there a better work/learning flow  
that you can recommend?

Thank you,

Ray
