I can confirm that ftp://ftp.ca.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ and > ftp://ftp.no.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ also shown the same timestamp. In December the FTP master site died and some of the config was lost. The config for synchronizing all the documentation broke then, but nobody noticed so the docs haven't been updated since. I just fixed it on the FTP master site so the updated docs should be on the FTP mirror sites within 24 hours (depending on when the mirrors sync). Thanks for letting us know about the problem. -- Simon L. Nielsen
