And indices just contains du-k.gz, find-ls,gz and ls-lR.gz -- none of which necessarily get updated often. authors/RECENT.recent is really the key file for having the most up-to-date distributions modules/RECENT.recent covers the 02packages.details.txt file, but that updates via cronjob, not on demand as distributions are indexed, so it can lag anyway. -- David
