Can you please file a PR about cvsup1.fr ? There are two immediate issues regarding that: 1.) I (personally) do not have a way to check on the status of that machine's syncing; 2.) Some machines within the FreeBSD.org infrastructure are being moved around/upgraded/duct-taped, etc. So, while thus far it has been minimal, user-facing issues may have occurred. So, until all of the moving "things" around is done, a PR will be the best way to ensure your report does not further go unanswered. Glen
