Correct. dougb has pointed this out before and no one has taken the cycles to go act on it. Consider this a task that needs volunteers. (A similiar caveat applies to the Debian and NetBSD sites; I believe it was Debian he flagged previously.) Isn't this concern orthogonal to the original one about maintaining a (set of) correct MASTER_SITE setting(s), for use by such ports as can legitimately use Fedora/Debian/NetBSD/whatever sites? ___ freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-emulation-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I'm not sure I follow. If Fedora is making an rpm available for download, how is it stealing their bandwidth to download the rpm from there? Wouldn't be equally stealing to download it from anywhere else? -- Paul Schmehl, Senior Infosec Analyst As if it wasn't already obvious, my opinions are my own and not those of my employer. *** It is as useless to argue with those who have renounced the use of reason as to administer medication to the dead.
