It's pretty new, so I guess the mirrors might not have caught up yet.

Here's the blurb from the readme, for those interested:
   "Used for solving every problem around footnotes and then some.
    Deals with nested footnotes in several apparatus, uses a  
backtracking
    algorithm for finding the optimal break across several footnotes,
    automatically breaks in-paragraph style footnotes across pages,
    uses fuzzy logic for deciding about when to prefer in-paragraph
    layout to one-footnote-per-paragraph layout on a per-note and
    per-block basis, deals with colors in footnotes even when broken
    across pages, adapts the document class's footnote style to
    in-paragraph footnotes as good as it can, allows customization of
    styles differing across footnote blocks, allows verbatim text in
    footnotes and so on."

Hope this helps,

Will
