Whom would be able to help Richard, the maintainer of the new cvsup mirror cvsup.ca.freebsd.org, get hooked up with access to one of the master sites, and possibly get added to the handbook for his www (www2.ca.freebsd.org), ftp (ftp3.ca.freebsd.org), and cvsup mirrors (cvsup1.ca.freebsd.org)? Please let me know... Cheers, Mit PS: Robert, you might want to subscribe to freebsd-hubs maling list; this is where all discussions related to the mirror sites is preferred.
