The packages that remained in non-US/non-free until its demise are not packages that Debian has ever done export notification for, so I don't think it would be a good idea for the project to republish them from an archive in the US. The packages in non-US/main have *mostly* been integrated into main, so AFAICT it would be appropriate to include those packages on archive.debian.org, but if you're keen to do this it may simply be better (or at least safer) to get BXA notifications sent for all the packages. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
