Why keep them in the FTP archive at all? Sorry if this has been beaten to death before, I've only been on the list for a month and I only checked through this year's archived messages to "get caught up"... I've been running unpublished ftp-mirror and cvs-mirror machines for a while now and haven't been able to figure out why the FTP archive needed to overlap the CVSup servers for the above mentioned stuff but figured there was probably some reason. The only reason I got up the nerve to ask was there seem to be some growing pains being worked out and maybe this was an old artifact no longer necessary but nobody has thought about it recently. ken To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
