Well from Portugal behind a decent ASDL connection I get the following:

wget https://codeload.github.com/KiCad/Capacitors_Tantalum_SMD.pretty/zip/master
--2014-03-03 17:57:07--  https://codeload.github.com/KiCad/Capacitors_Tantalum_SMD.pretty/zip/master
Resolving codeload.github.com... 192.30.252.147

Thanks,
