[Bf-webcontent] Fwd: blender3d.org blocking our ip

[Martin DeMello]

I've found the guy who did it and explained the error of his ways to
him. Thanks for lifting the ban. He said he was trying to get an copy
of http://www.blender.org/modules/documentation/htmli/ to read offline
- is there a tarball available that he can download?
