The returns on information about sites has been good enough that
I told re@ and portmgr@ it's ready for use.  Those of you who have
sent in your site information thank you very much.  If you sent
me your site information and you have not received the subscription
message sent to your Site Contact email address yet please:

	1) If you filter email based on checksums (DCC) please check
	   the place your spam goes, the subscription notice is a form
	   letter so it might have wound up there

	2) If you still can't find it let me know please, I might
	   have done something wrong.

If you are an official mirror site and haven't sent the info yet,
please at least send me enough  to get you added to the mirror-announce
list (site contact info).  Or you can send me everything, here it is
one more time.  I have had some cvsup and www mirror sites reply.  I
know the "Access Methods" and "Sync Mechanism" are meaningless for
those sites but if other cvsup/www mirror sites are out there and
want to send me your information that's fine.  This time around I
started off just thinking about the ftp mirror sites but collecting
the info for the cvsup/www sites was going to be a future project. :-)

Thanks.
