Is there anything particularly interesting about rsync which would make the downloads nicer? I mean, running rsync endpoint takes some maintenance, and that's why we are asking whether anybody still uses FTP. We'd like to discontinue it. I can see that by rsync, you simply get the whole archive mirror, and if you need a better machine-readable listing of the version archive over HTTP, we'll happily create that, with the same effective result. Or is there anything I've missed? Thanks! Maria -- Maria Matejka (she/her) | BIRD Team Leader | CZ.NIC, z.s.p.o.
