Naturally this is putting considerable load on the main cvsup server at the moment and it isn't easy to get access to cvsup.freebsd.org. However some weeks ago I reported a problem where the Australian mirror was returning incorrect files, so I don't really trust the mirroring system at the moment. Is there some safety in using the primary mirrors cvsup[0-9] +.freebsd.org? Which ones can be 100% relied upon to be up to date? Is there some way of verifying that a particular server is up to date and reliable? Is there a more appropriate infrastructure mailing list to raise this issue on?
