Naturally this is putting considerable load on the main cvsup server  
at the moment and it isn't easy to get access to cvsup.freebsd.org.  
However some weeks ago I reported a problem where the Australian  
mirror was returning incorrect files, so I don't really trust the  
mirroring system at the moment.

Is there some safety in using the primary mirrors cvsup[0-9] 
+.freebsd.org? Which ones can be 100% relied upon to be up to date?  
Is there some way of verifying that a particular server is up to date  
and reliable?

Is there a more appropriate infrastructure mailing list to raise this  
issue on?

Cheers
Ari Maniatis
