Hi Jason-- Thanks for the info. For some reason I thought FTP mirroring worked automatically on about the same timescale as, say, the cvsup mirrors or the Web site rebuilds. It sounds like this isn't necessarily the case, and how the mirroring is set up depends on the individual mirror site operator. Right? (Putting together a snapshot sure is a learning experience!)
