I wouldn't post them. Right now they are only temporary download locations, not actual mirrors. Since they will probably only be maintained as-needed, it is better to not mention them unless they are needed.
Like I said before, the real thing will probably be online again tomorrow. If that server has had a hardware failure, I will go ahead and complete the move to the new location w/o finishing the new site.
It's only been a few days so just wait it out. It's not like we have a huge influx of new people to the game...
With respect, this is a fairly short-sighted attitude. There's no massive influx of new people, yet every time the Decal server goes down there's a post quite quickly on these forums.
I have the greatest of respect for you, VI, Haz, and everyone else who puts their time and effort into maintaining Decal. I would bet 50+% of people in AC would not be playing right now if it was not for you folks keeping Decal running, but not having a stable, safe, officially-sanctioned alternative download source is short-sighted in the extreme. It's not like there's a shortage of reliable, secure, and safe hosting services out there. I strongly urge you to consider uploading 2.9.6.0 and the latest beta to one of them.

For the Decal Gurus I thank you for all you do!
I love AC and Decal makes it even better!
I'm a returning player and having lots of problems with decal atm.
I have now installed it but every time I go to update it says the host is unavailable.
Should I copy and paste my Error that I get here to see if its just me or if no one can DL anything atm?
Thanks for any help in advance.

Hey Virindi,
I have downloaded Decal from that source and it still wont let me update anything and all of my boxes are red.
I hope I am not having a problem that is shown how to fix somewhere else.
Here is the error I am getting.
Start Download at: 06:56:11

You have to download the XML files to your Decal install directory.
