Sadly, most normal countries have poorer Internet > connectivity. Try scandinavia. As far as I know all the scandinavian countries have very good internet connectivity. Ok... Sometimes the US link is not the best, but then again, that is not scandinavia having a bad connection to internet. It's US having a bad connection to the internet. ;-) Meaning, if the US-Europe link sucks, it's neither sides fault, really. And wouldn't i be better to ahve the main repository outside US, and having that mirrored into the machine that today is the main repository. That seems more logical, no? And have all encryption things written outside the US, so that it can be downloaded by everyone. As far as I understand, there's no problem importing encryption stuff into the US, is it? It seems to me that moving the main repository would be the easiest and most logical solution, since we could add all the encryption we wanted, then, without any problems. /Mikael
