If you take a close look at the mirrors.html page, you'll see that the list is polled on a regular basis to maintain currency. If there are out-of-date sites, that would indicate that there was a problem with the polling, which, in fact, there was. A perl module update apparently broke checking of http mirrors. This has been corrected. So thanks for the roundabout heads up on the problem but you could have saved yourself some work by just reporting the problem. I've changed the wording on the web site to be slightly clearer that this page is autogenerated. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
