Hi,

Who is maintaining the FreeBSD mirror at ftp.de.freebsd.org?
The welcome message doesn't mention any contact address.

The problem is that the server contains many stale packages
for FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE.  I guess the maintainer mirrored
the packages once in October but never re-synced again
afterwards, even though some packages have been updated.

For example, it has this one:
   114199 Oct 19 10:16 AutoIndex-2.2.0.tbz
while it _should_ have:
   114238 Nov  1 00:36 AutoIndex-2.2.0.tbz

The problem affects hundreds of packages, maybe thousands,
I didn't count.

Best regards
   Oliver
