I don't mean to be too critical of you guys, because I know you work
hard and are busy, but...

4.3R might have gone a bit smoother if you had actually pushed it out =
to
all your mirrors before announcing it.

Currently, ftp.freebsd.org, usw1 and usw2 are totally inaccessible (or
if I do get through, pretty much unresponsive). I tried connecting to
ftp2.freebsd.org through ftp10.freebsd.org. None of them have this
release mirrored, except ftp10, and the image on ftp10 is corrupt
(truncated to only 45MB in size).

A little foresight goes a long way, and I assert that the load would be
quite a bit less on ftp.freebsd.org if the mirrors actually had a copy
to distribute.

(FWIW I'm speaking specifically of the ISO CD image. It might be
available in other forms (binary or source dist) but I was not
interested in those.)
