Good Morning Fellow BUGS,

Some of you already know (from IRC) that we are hosting a FreeBSD CVSup and
WWW mirror in Brisbane. The mirror is now an "official" FreeBSD mirror and
answers to:

  cvsup3.au.freebsd.org (CVSup Mirror)
    www2.au.freebsd.org (WWW Mirror)

Please contact me via this mailing list, or directly, if you have
questions/suggestions/problems relating to this mirror.

Thanks to Jarrod (hostmaster at au) for making the necessary arrangements.

Plug for Hosting Provider
-------------------------
I highly recommend Oz Servers <http://www.ozservers.com.au/> to anyone
looking for a high-quality reasonably-priced Australian hosting facility. We
have used them for over 12 months now. The operations staff are competent,
real people with a "can do" attitude (they don't follow a script).
