I want my Fedora Core 3

[ogetbilo]

Has anybody been able to find a copy of FC3? It was supposed to be released today but when I try to go to fedora/core/3 directory on any mirror I get a server 550 error message. If anybody finds a mirror can (s)he please post its link here?
I am so excited about this new release:)
They promised to release 2-3 core's every year but they released just one core in the past 365 days, BUT we still love them, dont we? :D

As soon as it is available you can download it from www.distrowatch.com. Release date is 11.8.04 if I am not mistaken.

Some of the mirrors are open with FC3, but I have not seen any isos yet.

Patience, it is coming :p
Time to say good bye to FC3RC2.

My FC2 is working like a champ for now and i will probably just wait a few more days to make sure everything will go OK.

Same with me. Although I do want to have Gnome 2.8 and Xorg 6.8. My biggest decision will be whether to install or upgrade. I guess I'll keep FC2 around for awhile.

BTW, did you ever get Jon's 3ddesktop working? I got the basic Metisse working, (according to Thomas Chung) but I can't get the scripts to work for Jon's version.

Let's all try to stay in one place in regards to FC3 Release. Thanks.
