X-BeenThere: ctm-users@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: CTM User discussions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2009 03:17:56 -0000 I have just been informed by my system administrator that the computer that creates the CTM deltas may be put behind a firewall. There may be ways to get around it, but it will be quite a hassle on my end. My question is this - are there people who still depend on CTM for their updates? Or is it time to close down CTM? Or is there someone else who wants to take it over? I should add that my system administrator is tremendously supportive towards the FreeBSD project, and I am sure that he would be a big help to finding ways to keep CTM going, if it turns out that enough people really need it. But I don't want to go through that headache if there aren't enough people to warrant its continued existence. Please reply to ctm-users, but this is being sent to ctm-announce as well, just in case some people are there who are not on ctm-users. Thanks, Stephen
