    Mk                   bsd.sites.mk 
  Log:
  Add MASTER_SITE_RINGSERVER which consists of 21 servers (and one
  roundrobin server) located in Japan.
  
  The RingServer Project is one of the largest FTP/HTTP mirror site
  networks in Japan.
  
  	http://www.ring.gr.jp/index.html.en
  
  They mirror many freesoftware archives listed in the following page:
  
  	http://www.ring.gr.jp/ring/softlib/scatalog-j.html
  
  Hereby the following MASTER_SITE entries are now powered by
  RingServers.
  
  	MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB
  	MASTER_SITE_XFREE
  	MASTER_SITE_GNU
  	MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN
  	MASTER_SITE_TEX_CTAN
  	MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE
  	MASTER_SITE_KDE
  
  I believe this would greatly reduce the traffic from Japan to US and
  European servers.
  
  To Japanese users:
  
  Please configure your MASTER_SORT and/or MASTER_SORT_REGEX properly to
  use those mirrors instead of foreign ones! :>
