If you could send from (or CC to) the address we have on file, naming the person who is/was responsible for it, that's not a problem at all. It's just an annoying extra step to make sure it's actually you guys. > As a side note I was wondering what happens when mirrors drop out of the > project -- I notice that uk2. has been dropped from the mirrors list and uk. > suspended.

Generally we wouldn't offer this, but by request, we can do it. I'm setting up a mirror myself (provided by eUKhost) that was going to replace UK2, and - pending response from the maintainers of uk.php.net, who've yet to acknowledge our contact - may soon be looking to replace another UK mirror from applications on the waiting list. Trying to hurry things up so that you guys don't wind up taking on a bunch of unanticipated traffic. In any case, I can already give you the uk2.php.net address if you want to accept it today, or - if you want to wait another day - you can take the gamble on whether or not uk.php.net comes back up. If it doesn't, it'll be expelled, and you guys can assume the primary; if it comes up and you haven't accepted UK2 today, I'll have already replaced it, so you guys would remain UK3. Just let me know within the next two hours or so what you'd like to do and we'll go from there. Thanks, Jon. -- </Daniel P. Brown> Network Infrastructure Manager http://www.php.net/
