And once again I've decided to reply to you here - as well as your misdirected post to the webmaster address a few moments ago. As I told you from the beginning, we're volunteers here, and we have a lot of responsibilities outside of mirror maintenance. Please be patient and your mirror will be added to the roster to be checked as soon as possible. Unfortunately, sending multiple emails as "reminders" will not expedite the process, and only further delays progress as we then have to reply to emails. > I have also found a list of things to be specified for the mirror application, > so here it is: > > * Your country. > - Belarus > > * The xx.php.net address you used to set up the mirror site, which you > obtained previously in a conversation with the mirror admins. > - we haven't obtained any yet.
