I'm sure we can get at least the * neosoft mirror to replicate it (ftp3.freebsd.org). I'm talking about the "regular" backup as defined in MASTER_SITE_BACKUP. What's wrong with using hub? We can have one site in the Makefile, plus the regular backup on ftp.freebsd.org or wherever the user choses in /etc/make.conf. Just like any other port. And if you mean have two sites in the Makefile, unless both those names are symbolic (e.g., ftp-local and ftp-local2), I wouldn't want to do that. (Or we have to edit all the Makefiles again when we change ftp3's name or something.) Satoshi
