One of the registered NSes for freebsd.org appears to be down at the moment:

; <<>> DiG 9.3.2-P1 <<>> @NS1.DOWNLOADTECH.COM. cvsup.freebsd.org IN A
; (1 server found)
;; global options:  printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

If you just try again, chances are you'll hit one of the other three
authoritative nameservers and get a response.

	Cheers,
