Why doesn't cygnus keep a directory for other people's contributions to the project? Since this site is mirrored all over the world it would make downloading a lot easier for everybody. (For example I've been trying to download the new man/groff compilation for about a week with no success.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pedro A.C.
