I (cvsup5.au) also wonder about that.  Though I wasn't affected by the
renumbering, it is odd that David did it or was asked to do it without
consulting the owners or -hubs first.  It is good to see some new servers
around, one of which took up cvsup6.au becuase cvsup6.au use to be an
alias for cvsup5.au :)

If your taking about the PlanetMirror one then yes, I helped Jason get
that one running.

There is a quirk with it which I noticed the other day but haven't had a
chance to ask him about.  When you use net/cvsup-mirror to mirror the
tree, dont use that server because when it hits distrib-all, it guts the
folder (/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup).  Because its 2 frontend Linux boxes,
scripts and config were munged together to get it to work, im guessing
that bit was missed.
