Definitely very good idea. On the other side.. people getting into business of mirroring the FreeBSD FTP space should think a bit more and look around before doing anything. The branches/ and FreeBSD-CVS/ are special areas and having local CVSup mirror greatly simplifies mirroring those areas. In the first attempt I did the same mistake going with all-or-nothing ftp-mirroring route... to only discover later that other sites do it differently and efficiently. And to give even more weight to Jesper voice, I used ftp.freebsd.org as well at this time. -- Vallo Kallaste kalts@estpak.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
