Description Alexander Best 2010-03-19 12:30:03 UTC

the link to http://snapshots.us.freebsd.org/ on http://www.freebsd.org/snapshots/ is broken.

it might be a good idea to add a reference to http://www.allbsd.org/ instead. they've been building freebsd images for a few years now on a daily basis and have almost zero downtime.

cheers.
alex

Hm.  Just checked the snapshots allbsd is providing.

They have exactly the same file there as we have on our FTP mirror under
pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/.  Meaning they are basically acting as a "normal"
FTP mirror in this respect.

So I think the best way to proceed is to remove the "Other Resources"
section on this page completely.
