Max,

You are right.  I stand corrected.  Nevertheless, I'm suggesting that we
should consider pre-building unstable binaries to broaden the base of
unstable testers.  If bandwidth to dl.sourceforge.net is an issue, then we
might consider utilizing the Debian mirror structure.  Another distribution
tree in their hierarchy wouldn't be much overhead and may give a larger user
base to Fink.  If they support deb distribution tree for FreeBSD Alpha, then
Darwin PPC isn't that much of a stretch.  Just a thought.
