Hi Eric,
I just started using approx. I'm really impressed. It's a great
piece of work. Thanks!
Here's a question: Is it permissible/possible to have two (or more)
different mirrors listed as servers for the same set of archives?
for example, my approx server's approx.conf file has

"Run it to confirm whether the crash is fixed" should be just like
"confirm that it crashes" above. Should be no problem if we get this

Would it be helpful if I set up an account for you on the machines

I own both G3's and G4's running Debian Stable. I can take them down
for limited periods (a day or so) to run other versions of Debian.
