Could you add those extra sites to MASTER_SITES then please? None of them are official -- and various web-pages continue to refer to ftp.cwi.nl as the source. Since FreeBSD mirrors already provide unofficial mirrors, is there a point in adding those at this time? -mi ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
