Hi all,

Another mirror site has been added to the Solaris Package Archive Team.
SunSITE Poland has been mirroring for a while and participating in the
statistics collection as well. It's slightly different from the other
mirrors in that it's FTP only, but if you point your browser at a
HTML file, such as the index.html then it all works just fine.

The administrator for the site is Wojtek Sylwestrzak
<W.Sylwestrzak AT icm.edu.pl>
and the URLs for accessing the archive are:

ftp://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/solaris/sparc/
ftp://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/solaris/i86pc/
http://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/solaris/sparc/index.html

I'd like to thank Wojtek for his vision and assistance in providing this
service to the Solaris community.

Remember though, I am the one to contact if you have any queries about the
packages themselves. If you want to discuss the software itself, please
contact the authors mentioned in each Status URL. I hope those of you in
Europe find the new archive useful as it offers even more service to you in
that part of the world. I imagine ISPs charge a lot for international
traffic there as well.

Package production will be continuing again, I was travelling for over a
month and have been doing overtime to resuscitate the credit cards but
things now look to be in control. Some new packages to watch for include
the latest xv, MRTG, BIND, sendmail and also GIMP. These will appear in the
next few weeks.

Cheers,
Mark
