FYI, portsnap problems

[Colin Percival]

Hi all,

For the benefit of those of you who are noticing problems with portsnap right
now: The release of FreeBSD 7.1 has resulted in a very large amount of traffic
to update1.freebsd.org, which is hosted by the same box as portsnap-master...
so the portsnap mirrors are having some trouble syncing right now.  If you find
that portsnap doesn't work, please be patient -- once the flood of people
upgrading systems to 7.1-RELEASE has subsided things should get back to normal.

(Before people ask: update2.freebsd.org is going to exist soon.  No, I'm not
looking for more mirrors right now.)
