The committers guide at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/article.html should be updated with the above location to use instead of ~peter/something as the file at freefall/~peter is quite old now. Also, what's the chance of the mirror being updated and exported to the above URL as part of the release process, so that a new mirror is available when 8.2 is available, followed by 9.0, etc, and naming them as such?
