Adrian:

you and/or Cristian really need to give this program some attention.

Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2001-03-28 19:01:47 UTC

the first two tracebacks seem to be coming from some sort of 
network connectivity issue (the failure occurs while trying
to make a http connection).

The last error at 08:34 is a fault code return by the server
when anonymous access is attempted.

The tracebacks are a result of the socket errors not being
caught and handled gracefully. These are currently fixed
in cvs.
