"I'd suggest that IITM starts mirroring the CVS tree via
CVSup. Thats just a few GB and light on network bandwidth."
but how useful would this be? i am not so desparate to mirror 'something'
while using up only a few gb. the mirroring documentation recommends
syncing the cvs tree every hour. the total size of the tree is given as
2.x gb. but, where is it? i do see a cvsup directory, but i dont think
that is THE cvs tree. this is why i suggested someone who uses freebsd
might be able to make better sense of the tree structure and recommend
which directories to mirror and which to skip so as to get a usable mirror
that is, say, less than 50gb in size.
