Maybe yum should be changed to send the end-user's email address, so us nefarious mirror admins can make downloads "slower than necessary" just for you. I spent several hours this weekend getting my mirror ready for F11 Beta and then trying to catch up on rawhide (which had huge churn after the beta freeze was released). I guess I could have gone without sleep and cut a few hours off the total time; would that have made you happier? -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
