Sadly, there is no room for the distfiles anymore since even the packages, which are the #1 user requested items, are overflowing the 4 CDs. I may be able to fight and win a battle to go to 6 CDs, but that will only catch us up with packages and "various extra bits" again. Meanwhile, the distfiles have bloated up to around 3GB and only the FreeBSD toolkit can possibly accomodate even a good selection of them, so that's what we're doing now. If you want distfiles, buy the toolkit. If you want basic release bits and packages to go with them, buy the mainstream releases. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
