[Boost-testing] regression.py script failures

From: Martin Slater (mslater_at_[hidden])

I've been having a lot of trouble with the script recently, first with 
non accessability as I just posted about which cannot be helped and also 
with bad zip files (error at end of post). In this case would it be 
possible to make the script wait a few a minutes then retry rather than 
just exit as the next scheduled run maybe hours away. As it is I find 
myself constantly watching for this and kicking it by hand if I see it.

cheers

Martin
