[Development] [Releasing] [Interest] download.qt.io is down

Hi,

To explain a bit why I was mistaken about the online in the mail I sent last night. We have a development feature that allows selecting the mirror manually. I thought it could be used, but it turned out we had not released that version of the installer. Would have been handy, but since it is not already released, the best approach is to re-create the master. We are doing that now. We will also have this feature in the installer released (after we can again make releases), because it is sometimes handy to tell explicitly what server to download from.

Yours,

                Tuukka

Hi Tuuka,

The Online installer downloads files in 2 phases:

1. Retrieve metadata from download.qt.io
2. Retrieve actual binaries from the auto-selected mirror

Since Step #1 is blocked, it can't proceed to Step #2.
