The only reasons to choose Most, but not all. Is it possible to list that information too. As well as an on easily found place. The link on the mainform gives http://www.nl.freebsd.org/support.html#cvs which does not list that information. A search gives over 25 documents, one of which is http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors-cvsup.html which also does not list that tidbit. I switched from the dutch mirror to an UK one because the latter was more up to date. So now there is a new dutch mirror. However, it is not clear how up to date it is.
