 LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
The current status on LinuxTracker is that there are 17 MEPIS official-release torrents, going back to SimplyMEPIS 7.0 and AntiX M7.5.
7 of the torrents have 2 or fewer seeders, so we could use some help.

 Re: LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
Now that lenny is oldstable and etch no longer receives any security updates, is there any point keeping a MEPIS 7.0 torrent going?

 Re: LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
I think not. My own feeling is that no encouragement should be given to install MEPIS 7.0.

 Re: LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
@ anti, I had to re-register to get on, last week.
There is probably not much reason to worry about torrents at this time, with M11 coming out in the near future, just a thought.

 Re: LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
It uses the MEPIS 7.0 repos along with debian stable (etch at release time) and debian testing, (lenny at release time). It's sources.list always used the stable, testing nomenclature.

 Re: LinuxTracker Status- Call for Help
I do know what the problem was, but I never could get 7 to load and when I did, it would not run right. Hung on to 6.5 until well after 8 was out, I am still on 8, 64 bit. Updates are still coming in for 8 at times.

Well, you can still download them, and the repositories are still around.

Yes and 3.43 and 6.0 can still be downloaded, although the repos are gone.
