I always got my packages from this (fast) mirror (before I burned them
on CD):

ftp://unix.hensa.ac.uk/mirrors/ftp.enlightenment.org/enlightenment/

http-downloads can be found at sf.net, but only the e16.5 tarball &
rpms, no download of fnlib/audiofile/esd/imlib1 overthere...

it might be worthwhile to scan other big public ftp sites in case this
one (hensa) will stop mirroring (which I think is doubtful). I still
think it would be better (easier) to have ftp.enlightenment.org enabled.

on the other hand, i think every distribution includes E16.5 nowadays,
so who *really* to download? linux-from-scratch'ers? ;-)

hope this helps.
