Pete. . . it's an awesome thing. . . and yes, with it, you can keep 
your NYC*BUG membership even though you temporarily find yourself in 
Cali. . .

I think it would be nice to list cvsup servers provided by NYC*BUG 
people. . . Okan, don't keep it a secret. . .

MW: maybe setup an area for cvsup servers provided. . .

No one has elaborated which or all BSDs they are providing cvsup 
servers for.

I think it's all if possible.  And PF the bandwidth if necessary. . .
