Dear All,
I cannot download a boost source from bintray, e.g., https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.73.0/source/boost_1_73_0.tar.bz2 returns 403 Forbidden.
This happens once a month when the monthly quota for free hosting has reached its maximum. Boost relies on free hosting of their cdn and so they are at a mercy of the hosting provider - IBM. I think Google Firebase would be a better option because that is also free but I was told it is not an option because of the work involved to moving the repository on to Firebase. Their supplier is SoftLayer - https://www.ibm.com/uk-en/cloud/info/softlayer-is-now-ibm-cloud. It used to be free at one time but they seem to have made it commercial. I have still got an account with them but I rarely use it. -- With over 1.2 billion devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows.
