Yup, this is known. Gary or I will do something about this for the next release I hope. At the moment the chooser is in transition, but we want to get the new functionality 'out there'.

Does this affect the current setup? I think it does. Rsync support is in the TODO list already... I'll add a 'filter mirror list to supported URL schemes' todo item as well.

Should it? I guess it should. Ok, adding to TODO, it may get into the release, maybe not :}.

I get a 404 trying to view the http://hackdata.com/cygwin/setup-20020315 URL.

Likewise.

Thanks again for the feedback.
