Hmm, it sounds nice, but I won't see the real benefit, yet.
I would not mind beeing listed in i2.freebsd.org _and_
de.freebsd.org. Maybe something like ${cc}.i2.freebsd.org
would give an additional hint, where to connect, but this
seems to become too pedantic ? ;-)
So if people think it is a good idea, feel free to add
ftp.leo.org / cvsup.leo.org to the i2 subdomain.
Best regards,
Daniel Lang
