yes they are different. its addressed already in the archives multiple times.
Found a thread from 2007 where Theo states "www.openbsd.org is a
mirror on a good network connection" but is this still the case? Can
one have a "mirror" that is more up-to-date than the source?
we like it that way.
quit using the site without the www's. :)
<nowww>.openbsd.org is not the source and never was (at least in the ten
years I've been on the project). It is hosted on the machine where
OpenBSD development is stored, but the source is a CVS repository. All
mirrors we want you to use are cvs checkouts of the CVS www/ repo. Most
of them update automatically. That one you are worrying about is
updated manually for various reasons. It helps discourage you from
using it. :)
