Yes, that would, though we can probably just as easily ID them by hostname. :-) My primary hope at this point is that we can at least combine logging information and come up with a single consistent format for it. Since I haven't out and out made a proposal on this format yet, here's my shot at it: Each cooperating hub site would scan its logs once every 24 hours and spit out a single email message to freebsd-stats@freebsd.org containing a record like this: <ftp-summary> <from>FTP mirror name</from> <date>date information</date> <releases> <item name="relname" count="count"> ... </releases> </ftp-summary> Where the number of entries in <releases>..</releases> is somewhat variable depending on what's on the mirror sites.
