Many thanks to Yoshihiro-san for > providing the PC98 build bits. hi scott, it would be good if you could wait for 24 or 48 hours after uploading and announcing to mirrors before you let the mailing lists know. otherwise people will attempt to find it on their closest mirror, see that it is not there and there is a high likelihood they will not bother checking a mirror in the future (especially if this happens a few times). of course in this instance even ftp.freebsd.org might not have picked it up in time, though jasper is very quick on getting things updated.. regards, -jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
