I'm reluctant to move the packages-2.1 because it is huge, although that is the only one that does not fit in the picture now. What do you guys think? Do you think it will be ok if we all coordinate the change and do it together? (I.e., I change it on ftp.freebsd.org, mirror site admins change them on the mirror sites, at the same time, so there won't be excessive file transfers.) Satoshi
