Re: [Savannah-help-public] Converting gnuspeech to svn

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hi,

mediafire doesn't allow me to wget those files at Savannah, and it
won't be practical for me to retrieve them each by each on my PC and
reupload them all at Savannah.

Can you upload them at Savannah, either using the submission upload
form, or simply using your Savannah download area?
(sftp://dl.sv.gnu.org/srv/download/gnuspeech/)
