[GLIMS] Do you do scripted downloads of GLIMS data?

[Bruce RAUP]

Hello all,

We are making a badly needed improvement in the GLIMS data download 
function, fixing time-out problems for large downloads.  As a result of 
these improvements, the URL for the data download service will change. 
The old one, at www.glims.org/services/download, will still work, but is 
being rendered obsolete.

So, if you are using the above URL in programs or scripts for downloading 
GLIMS data, please let me know.  If I get the silence I expect in response
to this query, we will remove the old service in a few weeks.

The new service will improve the performance of the download service (so
that it can handle more requests simultaneously), and solve the time-out
problems.

Thanks,
Bruce
