Hi,

So, is there any decision on this?  Could we get rsync access without
being a public mirror just yet?  We may be a public mirror at some
time in the future (we want to), but we will soon be changing to a new
colo, and aren't sure what our bandwidth will be at the new one.

Thanks,
Chad

Hi Chad -

Can you email Dennis and see what he thinks?  I'd much rather you rsync
from him than from RubyForge if at all possible...

Sure, yup, no problem, whatever you can do is fine.

Thanks,

Tom
