I guess I'll leave things as are, then, for that mirror that offers both. Another question on "https first", Tijl. Some MASTER_SITEs have a dozen entries or more, and I always thought that the infrastructure picks one of these randomly every time. In some tests I did today with two sites (one https, one http) it _always_ picked the first, confirming your point. Or is that only the case for `make makesum`? Gerald
