And also Debian had a new release. So, what did we have this week? RedHat
7.1, Debian 2.2r3 and now Mandrake 8.0 - this makes 9+ CDs/~6 GB that have
to be mirrored in sync. No wonder the net is slow!

sunsite.uio.no

Well, even if sunsite.uio.no is the main mandrake ftp site - it would be
*EXTREMELY* nice, if ftp.mandrake.com could point to sunsite.uio.no.
