 * 1. Any and all 1.x stuff has to go someplace else.  Any archive sites willing
 *    to take the ports, packages and dists for 1.x over completely and totally?

There's only 1.7 megs in packages-1.1.5, and AFAIK, those are the only
1.x stuff we have, no?

 *    If so, simply signal your assent by letting us know if you need
 *    more time to copy the bits so that you're not left stranded when
 *    we finally blow the 1.x stuff off of wcarchive.  You will also
 *    want to adjust your mirror scripts as well, naturally.. :-) We
 *    will give 24 hours notice before finally removing the 1.x bits
 *    so that mirrors have a chance to update their mirror files if
 *    they wish to keep the 1.x stuff.

Actually, I'd like somebody to step forward to resurrect the
packages-1.1 (and possibly ports-1.1) directory.  There are still many
people running 1.1.5 because of the stability, and I always thought
it's bad that we don't carry the packages anymore.

So, if someone still has the 1.x ports stuff (at least the packages)
and willing to be the primary distribution point, please tell us so
that we can redirect folks from here....

Thanks.... :)

Satoshi (your friendly ports coordinator)
