The site itself (WWW) says it's currently down for maintenance, but it's been like that for at least a week, if not longer. And with the MASTER_SITE(S) down the distfile is only available from the FreeBSD mirror. Should I just take maintainership, add my own mirror to MASTER_SITES and wait for the site to come back online, or are there other steps to be taken? AvW --=20 I'm not completely useless, I can be used as a bad example. --G4iJoqBmSsgzjUCe Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (FreeBSD) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJTLtBRAAoJEAfP7gJTaCe8hwIP/3nhLVTI7eF1X1qeKguVJdLg y/b0jkk9lH7VwN+ALJLlUGzVhfZX+7bVLKZneZxdevicOU2NY2eRxmpPiKPd14ej CAaL5fKr8VhQbgnjjqmH9ploP4lCW+xoqaO2zY7oUqHxQdlBvkkLqQinavF1scsg lo8WElkn5emz2nOafB7H37gtrfNX6mV/jQwxj3MlHZms0vg7IhsLVAehSGMY0FF2 sV9xsVm5qyfsyJIIbQ14qfyfk6zrlYUxtEfl1RH4fwMuR/u3sjbsiEiGkCOJJYKr udHfZ1fooBGWFBIX7l3C3u+1G4k4/bngjyVaH9B76prwcmiqMKxS39oeIMMAJoRe W3Nn17gxj3uvVsWTv/3hCDUGJopBk3xzkh2JjY9UWwMQ3TxQeX6LIA+0g9ZHZXfp AY3OS0kh5EIpoVg3+kc3M3nx9knPXBnz+8dRZ+ILxO05WTG6rKUjFD259B/XFnEK vdO0kl2AycYq8ZS0nDDYfMLq6FxiBRuJtn8UyWxWUKcf9fMGftdyKx5SAQQNTodA wYmV0EgEwTOuFVhe9IBQjo1RFflf8ybfOQhCr45/2rrNoGqXRHsSjzddEKN9jkF9 /3PPx2rIAXk6M1I00D0HyPIfzMNpZRowvy1gbQ442ecwRVkXs1lATnnRABi51sGN rivDrpwZjxhq4wr12yc+ =PLWh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --G4iJoqBmSsgzjUCe--
