I was not asked the protocol question. Hmm. That reminds me why the protocol question is not asked: FTP support is currently completely disabled in choose-mirror. If I remember correctly, the FTP protocol was disabled in order to save space as it means we don't need to include the mirror list for FTP sites. Maybe we should re-enable FTP, but without supporting a predefined list of mirrors (i.e. always just ask the user to enter the URL of the mirror manually if FTP is selected). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
