Many members of the community currently use FTP to mirror the IETF
archives and that FTP use is increasing. It appears that most people
are mirroring the entire FTP site on our servers, and doing it quite
frequently. We wanted to let you know that we've added a new RSYNC
target to our servers -- "everything-ftp" -- and it is now an
available RSYNC target. It gives you everything exactly as you would
get it via FTP -- that is, our entire FTP archive.
We've also seen a few bandwidth issues recently, and are working to
localize what appears to be an intermittent, yet recurring, issue. We
believe that the bandwidth issues might be directly connected to the
high FTP usage, which is why we encourage those of you who are
inclined to make the change from FTP to RSYNC to do so at your
earliest convenience.
As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Regards,
Alexa
