You can get the disk space information by looking at the file
`dir.sizes' in the FreeBSD FTP area.  For information on network
utilization, see <http://people.FreeBSD.org/~wollman/xyz.html>.

Yes.

On our FTP site (ftp5.FreeBSD.org), which also mirrors XFree86, CPAN,
NetBSD, and OpenBSD, we use the following programs:

	CPAN: spegla
	FreeBSD: spegla and cvsup
	NetBSD: rsync
	OpenBSD: spegla
	Tcl: spegla
	X: spegla
	XFree86: spegla

Some of these collections are made available for anonymous rsync.  The
FreeBSD collection is a bit unusual, since parts of it are sucked
directly over from the FTP site and parts are generated locally via
cvsup in checkout mode.  (As a result, the source trees in our FTP
area differ from those on ftp.FreeBSD.org.)  We currently do not carry
the full CVS tree in the FTP area, since there are more appropriate
ways of distributing this information.
