Because of bad internet environment in China, chinese users are hard to access Github. Many of them can only download files from mirror server: [https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/gmt/](https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/gmt/)

But if the file is not in Hawaii server, the mirror server cannot rsync it.

Do you mean Hawaii server cannot add files anymore?

The Hawaii server, for the time being, can. But the personal ftp account of P.Wessel cannot.

Oh, I am so sorry to hear that.

I am worrying that the DATA server may also be unavailable in the future

Ok, I see. Is zenodo a good alternative?

I think we are safe on that side as there are several mirrors of it.
