Actually, I could in all honesty probably even get the computer and network resources together to do this here at freebsd.org (or one of our donor-ISP machines), the principal missing element being the manpower to care for it and keep it running (as jdp and others do for cvsupd, for example). Mark and Ulf seemed to have it in hand for awhile, though now it seems that Mark's back to building them in ZA or something without Ulf's ISP resources - I honestly have no idea. What I do know is that if someone came forward and said "I wish to be CTM meister - I will make sure it runs and be a point of contact in the times when it stops doing so if someone will give me the CPU and disk resources. CPU and disk resources are cheap(er) now - if a committed and able volunteer became available, I'm sure something could be worked out WRT that. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
