Gentoo Full Text Bug Listing

Description:

Opened: 2005-01-03 19:54 0000

Many people block all network traffic from/to ValueClick.
ValueClick is listed on various ad-blocking / spam-blocking blacklists.

I strongly suggest using a different CPAN mirror, or conform to the traditional Gentoo method of mirroring relevant sources.
