Ping. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
At a minimum, we are likely to shut down the rsync method of mirroring the Open MPI web site (i.e., it won't be available at our new hosting location).

Is there a reason you use rsync instead of a git clone? > On Jun 27, 2016, at 4:36 PM, Jeff Squyres (jsquyres) <jsquy...@cisco.com> > wrote: > > Greetings Open MPI mirror sites! > > Mirror admins: we have a question for you. > > One of the primary reasons we started the Open MPI web site mirror program > was to help out those for whom bandwidth is expensive.
