This Ga Tech thread reminded me it's time to download Ubuntu ISO's 
again.  Anybody know where I can get the MD5SUMS document for the new 
Lubuntu releases?

One reason I collected the URL's I posted a while ago for Ubuntu mirrors 
is that the autorouter sometimes routes me to mirrors in the UK or 
Austrailia, which are invariably slow.

Sincerely,

Ron

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
