Assuming others might also be looking first to your site for 1.1.4 binaries, would it not be worthwhile distributing also that version for both FreeBSD-4-STABLE and FreeBSD-5-STABLE? AFAIK currently the only site carrying those packages is a Russian site to which the network connectivity is so bad that it takes more than 10h to download a 72MB package. (Or maybe they are just limiting everyones bandwidth to a few thousand bits per second.) Anyhow during such a long download there is ample time for all sorts of problems at the server and in the network which might cut the transmission. So, there is a big risk to have to try over and over again only stressing the apparently already overstreched network even more. So, could you do the community a service by posting also 1.1.4 binary packages to your site? Just my 0.02 € worth. // jau
