Two considerations, here. First: I did not say we are bandwidth-starved
-now-. I am saying that bandwidth is the most difficult resource to
increase. Second: do you know how many mirrors actually bother to carry
/pub/NetBSD-archive? We should not be too terribly surprised, and
certainly not have landed ourselves in a serious fix, if mirrors don't
carry a 'historical' cvs repository.
