Description Markus Rathgeb 2010-07-05 08:34:40 UTC

The URL 'http://kbs.cs.tu-berlin.de/~jutta/toast.html' is not working anymore.

IMHO that is the new URL: http://www.quut.com/gsm/

Excerpt: "Our library client, called toast, is modeled after the Unix compress program.  Running toast myspeech will compress the file myspeech, ..."

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

On the new page we could read:

Page move from TU Berlin to ... Quut?

A more extensive version of this document used to be at http://www.cs.tu-berlin.de/~jutta/toast.html aka http://kbs.cs.tu-berlin.de/~jutta/toast.html, hosted by the university I studied computer science at many years ago. I don't know whether my alma mater is suffering some sort of technical failure, or whether they finally noticed that I've been gone for about ten years - but my directories there don't seem to exist anymore. I made a couple of backups over the years, but I'll take the opportunity to trim down the page a little.

The place where it is now, quut.com, the Questionable Utility Company, will likely be around as long as I am. Thanks to the Technische Universität Berlin for its long and largely pain-free hosting services; we'll take it from here.

The quut site is also giving me "Connection timed out", i've simply pointed it to http://packages.qa.debian.org/libg/libgsm.html now and use gentoo mirrors....
