This means that the data-rate is limited too. Perhaps a rate limited version of the mail lists should be made for those who want that facility? I would say that not EVERYONE wants to do that. I know that I'd still prefer CTM over SUP, even if I had a half-way decent net.link... (and 3*100k/hour is about right ... since we produce deltas every 6 hours, that allows a 1.8Mb delta to go before the next one is due. I take it that it won't start shipping the new one until the old one is finished? If so, I may even go for 2/hour) Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations. See http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/ for info
