Due to boredom I had a look in my http-logs and noticed to my surprise I had couple of 404's for my old httpup "REPO" file. I switched to rsync a couple of weeks ago and since I didn't think anybody used any of my ports I failed to inform any of you. Sorry about that :). Replace "fredrik.httpup" with this file:

http://www.obra.se/crux/fredrik.rsync

I am seeing more contributers switching over to rsync, but httpup has some advantages for the user: 1 - Maintaining a local "clc" ports system is (IMO) much simpler with httpup. 2 - The repository page at crux.nu doesn't show details of indivual ports, etc. with rsync repos. 3 - Some of us are behind fascist firewalls and can't get to the rsync repo at all (not even with ssh).
