Hopefully we can provide rsync and IPv6 access soon.

What about to obfuscate a bit the e-mail addresses that appears on the
FreeBSD website in general: joe at example.com -> joeATexampleDOTcom
This could be applied to all non *BSD project related e-mail addresses.
Unfortunately this not HUBS issue, and I don't work on doc part, but here
is a simple perl snipet, that could do the trick:

$addr =~ s#\@#AT#g;
$addr =~ s#\.#DOT#g;

Personally I receive tons of spam for my <janos.mohacsi at bsd.hu> e-mail
address, that I filter with SpamAssassin...
