I'm having similar problems. I have, on occasion, fingered
@ftp.kernel.org and found that there is a new development kernel, but been
unable to find it at funet.fi, cistron.nl, or even cs.helsinki.fi. Upon
making the slow trek to kernel.org, I find that the kernel is a couple of
days old.

Anyway, I don't want to complain, as you're all (well, mostly anyway) busy
people, but sometimes it's hard to remain on the bleeding edge...

Matthew.

PS. I provide a mirror on ftp.lmh.ox.ac.uk:/pub/linux/kernel/ which
should have a fast link to most of Europe.
