It's a problem with certain ftp servers and some browsers. The dates
are not shown correctly and can be anything.
On Konqueror 2.0.1, the dates are between June 1 and July 1 in both
2000 and 2001, appearantly it does not know norwegian months and sets
them all to June.
If you use plain ftp, all the dates are correct.
Rsync, however, also seems to get some dates wrong, so you might
want to use the --size-only option to get a faster sync when
the mirror is complete again.
Right now (20:00 GMT), it is still waiting for gdb-5.0-13mdk.src.rpm
and has not yet started the binary RPMs AFAICS.
