Some firewall setups don't allow ftp, or, in my case, ftp traffic is routed over a seperate, high volume line, so I don't want to use http mirrors. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: johnm@gentoo.org 2004-12-01 11:32:48 0000 I will look into this for my next update. unfortunately this might not be until after 2005.0 Thank you for your interest and the suggestion though :) tercel@gentoo.org 2005-06-06 01:46:34 0000 I have taken over maintainership of mirrorselect. tercel@gentoo.org 2005-06-06 01:47:33 0000 I like this idea. I will work on implementing it after the new version of mirrorselect goes stable. Thanks for the input! tercel@gentoo.org 2005-06-11 22:39:50 0000 Added in testing release
