If you're already happy with the infrastructure required in MacPorts to make distfile fetching work, I withdraw my suggestion. The goal wasn't to reduce load on the server, the goal was to use existing mechanisms and require minimal changes to macports given the relative paucity of "base hackers" the project currently suffers from. - Jordan _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users
