A have a fair amount of trouble downloading the prereleases.
It appears that package download starts up, and then often
just hangs. When I check the *ftp..* log there's always an
error message. It appears that ftp download (copy-file?)
doesn't notice the errors? Or perhaps, it has noticed the
error and is trying to send signal to the ftp process?
(3) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (error Cannot send signal to process)
Also, Any possibility that the pre-releases directory could be
mirrored?
xemacs 21.1.13 on windows.

I don't have a Pre-Releases in 21.1
I assume this is the right way to add prereleases:
(add-to-list
'package-get-download-sites
'("Pre-Releases" "ftp.xemacs.org"
"/pub/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages"))

Is it just the packages in 'Pre-Releases' or do you have the same
trouble with any package?
JM> I don't have a Pre-Releases in 21.1
It's in XEmacs 21.1.14

Works for me.

Pre-releases are only available from xemacs.org
I have trouble downloading packages in general from ftp.xemacs.org.
I'm likely to get some sort of ftp error (200 people limit?)
from xemacs.org. It appears that when an ftp error occurs the
package downloader hangs until I do ^G, then I have to answer
some y-or-n question about the *ftp* process, and then a warning
that the ftp can't be killed.
I suspect that the problem is that ms windows doesn't support kill
and efs is trying to kill the ftp.
Downloading multiple packages at once increase the odds that
this problem occurs. I was eventually able to download the pre
release packages singly.
Note that the package downloader did not work at all until
I made the following change:
(setq efs-tmp-name-template "c:/TEMP/efs") ;; was
"C:\\windows\\TEMP/efs"
efs was passing c:\windows\TEMP/efsxxxx to ftp which then complained
about c:windowsTEMP/efsxxxx not existing.
JM> I don't have a Pre-Releases in 21.1

Ok. I'm on 21.1.13.

Do you have Gnus fetching mail periodically?
I found this to be interfering with package downloads, but haven't
diagnosed it beyond circumstantial evidence.

See http://www.xemacs.org/About/XEmacsServices.html#1
I wasn't so much complaining about ftp.xemacs.org, just that
using xemacs.org seems to be a reliable way to cause problems.
Ummm, ok you got me, I wish ftp.xemacs.org was bigger....

Umm, not that I know of. I wasn't reading gnus at the time.
I'm pretty sure that I hadn't started up a gnus. But you never know..
I haven't done much of anything to gnus, other than setting gnus-select-method.
I found this to be interfering with package downloads, but haven't
diagnosed it beyond circumstantial evidence.

I just realized that the '/' came from me changing
directory-sep-char. If I hadn't done that then the
package download would have created c:windowsTEMPefsxxxx
and would have probably 'worked', if only by accident.
