Fetching the latest i386 snapshot files I could not help noticing that the snapshots directory contains a number of near duplicate archives and .fs files with both *40.* and *41.* names, ie there are two base*.tgz files:
-r--r--r-- 1 1114 1114 42403082 Feb 14 17:13 base40.tgz -r--r--r-- 1 1114 1114 42401670 Feb 14 17:13 base41.tgz and oddly enough the index.txt file lists a few of those near duplicate file names as well. The timestamps make me think that some cpu cycles may have been wasted generating more archives than are actually needed, but I assume it won't be long until this is corrected. Which reminds me - People, the time to test snapshots is now. If you're not already routinely downloading and testing snapshots, now is an excellent time to start. Any feedback you generate and issues you help resolve will help making 4.1 the greatest ever release. -- Peter N. M.
