I don't think this is necessary nor desired. My Alpha box has been building a new package set approx. every week since I got it many months ago. Every since the ftp bits were moved off of ftp.freebsd.org I have not been able to upload any new sets. Despite repeated attempts to get an account setup on the new box I have been unsuccessful. If you could help get my account setup, I'd be more than happy to go back to uploading a new set of -current Alpha packages once a week. -steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
