A more realistic proposal has been to pulse things twice daily, but any change at all would require a substantial reworking of the infrastructure. It's also wholly out of the question while ftp-master is in temporary quarters as it is right now, and probably out of the question until after the archive split takes place. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I will move the world.
