Re: slink mirror

["Timothy C. Phan" <tphan@iqrinc.com>]

Hi Nathan,

  Many thanks for you support.  I guess you are right about
  large sites.

  I finally try to mirror the debian.crosslink.net and got
  the complete slink (i386) minus the source mirrored.

  So I'll try to upgrade my 1.3.1 to slink this weekend.

  Again, thank you!
