I highly doubt Freenode has the staff time to put towards this. From what I can tell, it just doesn't fit the way they push out code changes. Either we'd have to make an exception of our RPM-only policies for the donated server or we wouldn't be able to host a mirror at all. I kind of assumed that we'd make an exception if we'd be giving them root or an account not tied to FAS, after all. -- Ian Weller <ian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
