I think perhaps it'd be best if whiteboxlinux's servers were simply closed
off to everyone except registered mirrors. It's a total waste giving
updates to a few dozen people directly, if it's preventing distribution to
mirrors which would allow distribution to thousands.

John, can we see something done about this? I don't think it's healthy for
the situation to just fester like this.
