Hi, everyone


    I am really sorry to trouble you again at the first. But I have to send
this email to you.

    I am a student  who from HuBei University Of Education and  is a master
of the Baidu FreeBSD Paste Bar. I have emailed you to tell you that
FreeBSD haven't official mirrors in the Chinese mainland. For example, if I
want to install "nano", I have to waiting it for 1 hour.

     As we all know, due to this reason, there are fewer people know what
is the FreeBSD, and fewer people to use it.

    We want to mirror FreeBSD that including pkg,
posts, freebsd-update and freebsd portsnap mirrors. But FreeBSD project
seems that doesn't support we to mirror that. We don't know how to make it.
And I call Linux User Association which belongs to the University of
Science and Technology of China. They would like to mirror it, and
mirrors pkg and ports successful by the special way.

‌    Here is their website:

    And if you want to help us, you can send an email to

lug at ustc.edu.cn

   Thanks a lot.

yours,
ykla
