[WBEL-users] NCSU dropped the box

[Erik Williamson]

Hi All,

John contacted me about the NCSU dropping out bit - I gather that gatech 
will be picking up the slack as the mirror that the rest of us sync 
from.  I'll be switching mirror.cpsc.ucalgary.ca to point there tonight.

Unfortunately our link to Telus is limited severely because of financial 
issues - but anyone on Shaw or CA*Net networks gets full speed. 
Hopefully we will be working something out to get mirror's bandwidth 
donated, as it's become a community resource (fingers crossed).

Best,
Erik.
