No.. I mean the problem is the uplink is slow
and some damn crond job takes up to 2 days to complete when it should do
in one.. then wat happens is that there will be two simulatenous jobs..

admins at kernel.org sends me mails whenever a new reviion is up, then i
get it....
And seriously, could you tell us who They are ? And the reason behind it
so I may at least KNOW what's happening. Or are we gonna be kept in the
dark like the 128k thing again ?
