The problem was at my end.  The computer should send one piece every 
hour.  But I had forgotten to set up this hourly sending for src-9!!!  I 
fixed it now, and you should start to receive the pieces hourly.

However - there is also a ctm-src-9-fast mailing list, where you will 
get all the pieces at once.

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention, and my apologies for 
not setting up src-9 properly.
