>Description:
It saves a ton of time to ftp the pkgsrc bz2
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/pkgsrc-2007Q2/pkgsrc-2007Q2.tar.bz2
then extract and do a cvs update on a new machine,
verses doing an initial cvs checkout.
Can a cron be setup to generate archives of netbsd source
tags to accelerate src checkout? Maybe it would reduce load
and bandwidth of the netbsd cvs servers, too?
