eventually, while we were arguing about who'll do it, ilya snack back home
from the army base one weekend, and wrote the script, and later refused
writing to the mailing list that he did so :)

i now looked and the script is still there, and the cron jobs are still
there (once a day for most mirrors, twice for debian and 4 or 5 times for
kernel.org).  according to the logs, last successfull sync with debain
(ftp.debian.org, btw) was at about 5am this morning (the 5pm log is empty,
no idea why). kernel.org's update process got stuck on the 15-jan-2002.
looks like the rsync process runs without a timeout, or got stuck
otherwise...  the same for loki's and redhat-updates.

ok, the script lacked timeout for rsync - added it now and killed the
stable processes. checking if kernel.org managed to resync now...yes, file
list starting to arrive... and the patches are now flowing..

ira - thanks for reporting ;)
