However, I have 24x7 connectivity, so most of it comes to me in otherwise unused bandwidth. Since I have my mail setup to automatically update my CVS tree (not my source tree), I always have nearly up to the minute sources available. CTM is a push model, and CVSup is a pull model. Which one you use is a matter of taste. However, one thing is clear: You need about 1.5G of disk space to have an effective development machine. I have 2.25G on my machine, and things get a little cramped when I try to do both OpenBSD things and FreeBSD things at the same time. Warner
