I think any organization needs to recognize that different mirror operators and different locations will have different priorities for architecture support. A few months ago, I decided to stop carrying Alpha ports -- which are of nearly nonexistent value -- in order to free up disk space for other platforms that are of greater interest. For the moment, ftp5 still carries Alpha releases and I hope to continue to do so, but there's still only 100 Meg of disk for the time being. (I just put in a wish for more storage space so that this is less of an issue for ftp5.) -GAWollman
